Our annual Gardens for Good program is now open for applications!
(Applications are open until June 4, 2023)
At Nature’s Path, we believe in the power of community gardens to alleviate food security and create a positive social impact on the communities in which they are grown. Since 2010, our Gardens for Good program has donated over $615,000 to 74 community gardens supporting the organic movement and investing in a flourishing future for their families and neighbors.
With food insecurity on the rise across North America and research indicating community gardens can lower household food security concerns by up to 90%, Nature’s Path is increasing donation efforts from previous years, awarding each community garden winner $7,500 for more impactful outcomes for the gardeners.
Review our Terms and Conditions to determine if your garden is eligible.
