AgriTech North is an Indigenous- (Métis), disabled-, and LGBTQ-owned social enterprise corporation with a mission to grow nutritious food for Northern Ontario, focusing on Far North indigenous communities, that is of a consistently high quality, available year-round, and provided at a competitive price. The facility will be located in Dryden, Ontario, Canada to harness the waste heat, energy, and carbon from the Domtar Mill, establishing a Biohub with carbon negative operations. Dryden is ideal because of favorable transportation capabilities throughout the region and workforce access. The revenue from the food sold will ensure it is self-sustaining long-term as a research center. After proving the success of novel methods, AgriTech North will expand successful research projects throughout Canada to tackle a wider variety of food security issues throughout the country, made possible in part via several academic and indigenous partnerships.
