After careful deliberation of the applications, we have selected 3 gardens for our Gardens for Good grant. The Yam Project, Growing Roots and Garden Joy are all nourishing communities with their organic gardens in a unique way. We are excited to have this partnership with you and we can’t wait to see how your gardens flourish.
Thank you to all the gardens who applied for Nature’s Path Gardens for Good Grant. We were happy to see all the impactful garden initiatives that are giving communities access to organic food. Thank you again to all applicants for your generosity and hard work! We encourage you to apply for the Gardens for Good grant in 2020.
