Community Gardening Grant Program
Part of the mission of Little Balkans Gardeners is to provide grant funding to support
garden-related community projects or educational efforts.
Community groups in the local area are invited to apply for a Community Gardening Grant.
*Organizing this program for future grant opportunities
A funding advisory committee comprised of our garden club members will meet to review the club's budget and determine how many grants the club can offer. The funding advisory committee reviews the applications and makes a recommendation to the clubs Executive Board for approval in April,
with funds being made available to successful applicants soon after.
