The Garden Conservancy’s Garden Futures Grant Program (previously known as Gardens for Good) is an initiative through which the Conservancy awards grants—typically ranging from $5,000 to $10,000—to small public gardens and other nonprofit organizations making a significant impact in their communities through garden-based programming. Through this program, we celebrate and highlight the work of innovative and diverse gardening practices throughout the United States.
