PollinateTO Grants Available until October 21!

Toronto is home to hundreds of bee and butterfly species that play a vital role in our ecosystem, but many are at risk due to habitat loss and climate change. Through the City’s PollinateTO program, grants of up to $5,000 are available for projects that help to create pollinator habitats in Toronto. Applications are open until Tuesday, October 21.

PollinateTO is open to all resident-led groups, registered charities and non-profit organizations. Resident-led groups must be based in Toronto and include at least three residents from different households. Priority will be given to groups located in Neighbourhood Improvement Areas. Past projects have included schoolyard teaching gardens, Indigenous education gardens, faith-based community gardens, rain gardens and pollinator-friendly boulevard plantings.
