Ag Society Receives $95,000 in Community Spaces Funding

The Battlefords Agricultural Society is one of 14 projects selected to receive a portion of the $1 million Co-op Community Spaces funding in 2025. This year Discovery Co-op is proud to announce that the Ag Society is receiving $95,000 for facility upgrades. 

Co-op Community Spaces is designed to help protect, beautify and improve spaces across Western Canada. Since 2015, Community Spaces has invested a total of $14.5 million in 203 projects in three categories: recreation, environmental conservation and urban agriculture. FCL administers Community Spaces on behalf of more than 150 local Co-ops operating in 650 communities.

With the United Nations declaring 2025 the International Year of the Co-operative, this year’s program carries greater purpose and significance than ever before. Through initiatives like Community Spaces, Co-op is proud to celebrate the meaningful contributions co-operatives – such as our Co-op – make to communities at home and around the world.
