As always, deciding the Grant winners is always a challenge due to the range of wonderful gardens that apply.
This year we had applications from food banks, campus community gardens, a church community garden, and urban farm collectives. The range of urban food projects is inspiring and encouraging – together we are changing the world for the better.
As our sales are slower than usual this year, we are not able to be as generous, so the grants are modified. We will increase the awards if/when sales improve – so please spread the word!
*** Store closing is extended to April 16 at 5pm, and we are offering a 5% discount on orders of $250 and up (not including delivery/planting) ***
