The Gardens for Good grant program supports community gardens across North America that are growing organic food and making a difference in their communities. So far, Nature’s Path has supported 52 community gardens with more than $515,000 in grant funding.

Looking ahead to 2022:
Thank you to all the gardens who applied for Nature’s Path Gardens for Good Grant over the years. We were happy to see all the impactful garden initiatives that are giving communities access to organic food. Thank you for your generosity and hard work! We encourage you check our website often and invite you to apply for the Gardens for Good grant in 2022 once we announce the details.
Plant it Forward®
We are constantly inspired by the incredible organizations that have won our Gardens for Good grants in the past. They are making big change in their local communities, and it is a true privilege to support them and further their work.
Past Grant Recipients
