2026 Garden Grants Available!

Garden Grants

Our popular Schoolyard Garden Grants are back! Nearly 100 schoolyard gardens have been started or improved with these grants over the years. We support any garden as long as it is used as an educational resource for your students. Grants are now available for up to $2,000 and need to be completed within two years.

School gardens offer an excellent way to teach students sound environmental principles & show them where their food comes from.

 

Jeffers is in the business of finding best practices in the field of Environmental/Outdoor Education – and sharing them. Our incomparable collection of school garden videos does exactly that.

 

Initially, we surveyed the state looking for high-quality school garden programs. We documented them along with dozens of others in short videos and case-studies to help you learn from the best.
