Grants to Create Sustainable Food Gardens
Annie’s Homegrown, Inc. offers grants to schools and educational programs to build an edible school garden (for example, growing fruits, vegetables, herbs, grains) in the United States. Two types of grants are available: Getting Started grants for a new garden program and Digging Deeper grants for already existing programs. Grants of $3,000 will be awarded to new school garden programs, and three grants of $5,000 will be awarded to existing school garden programs. Eligible applicants are K–12 public, private, and charter schools and nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations. Interested applicants will find additional details about these grants on GetEdFunding, a website sponsored by CDW•G with access to a free database of thousands of funding opportunities for educators.
Deadline: November 1, 2019, for applications
Plus: Annie’s worked with the Center for Ecoliteracy to develop a freely downloadable Growing School Gardens booklet to help teachers and parents plan and create sustainable gardens with their students and children—in any space, on any budget.
