Description
The Emergency On-Farm Support Fund provides funding to support protections for domestic and temporary foreign workers and address COVID-19 outbreaks on farms.

The program, administered to British Columbia- based farms, assists agricultural producers with some of the incremental costs for improving the health and safety of farm workers and limiting the spread of COVID-19 in agricultural operations. The program will provide up to $ 100,000 per recipient in non-repayable, cost-shared funding. Applications must include at least $ 5,000 in total eligible costs to be considered for the program.
