NEEF Grants for Community Garden Events — Open Now!
Have you ever wanted to expand programming at your site outside the usual boundaries of gardening? Would you like to help musical performances, barbecues, salsa tastings, art classes, birthday parties, holiday observances, or other creative events happen at your garden?
The National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF) is offering Every Day Event grants to friends groups (i.e. gardening clubs) to hold these sorts of events. The grants are up to $2,000 each, and the application is due December 18th. Check it out, and help your community visions come to life:
Our nation’s public lands are places where we picnic, play ball, fish, fly kites, pull weeds and plant seeds. Our public lands should be safe places of natural beauty where everyone can go to lend a hand, observe nature and enjoy life. With generous support from Toyota Motor Sales USA, Inc., NEEF offers Every Day Event Grants to public land organizations, or Friends Groups, to engage their community on a public land site.
