Since 2010, Nature’s Path’s Gardens for Good: Plant it Forward program has supported over 120 community gardens across the U.S. an Canada, donating nearly $1 million to help grow access to fresh, organic food in underserved communities. In 2025, the program will officially reach—and surpass—its original goal of donating $1 million by 2028.

Gardens for Good celebrates and empowers the incredible efforts of local gardens that nourish their communities, promote food sovereignty, and champion organic practices.

We’re especially happy to share that, for the first time in the program’s history, 100% of the Plant it Forward grant recipients were gardens serving underrepresented and underserved communities. This year, the program will again strongly encourage gardens who are serving underrepresented and underserved communities to apply—amplifying the voices and leadership of those most often impacted by food insecurity.

Together, we’re planting the seeds for a more equitable, sustainable future.
