National Gardening Association’s Healthy Sprouts Awards to Support Youth Gardening Programs
Deadline: October 1, 2010
The Subaru Healthy Sprouts Award, which is administered by the National Gardening Association and sponsored by Subaru of America, recognizes and supports youth gardening programs that provide education about the environment, nutrition, and hunger issues in the United States.
To be eligible, a school or organization must plan to garden in 2011 with at least fifteen children between the ages of three and 18. The selection of winners is based on the demonstrated relationship between the garden program and education related to environmental, nutrition, and hunger issues.
Thirty schools or organizations will be selected to receive a $500 gift certificate to the Gardening with Kids catalog and online store for basic youth gardening supplies as well as supporting educational materials, NGA’s Eat a Rainbow Kit, and a literature package from NGA.
Visit the NGA Kidsgardening Web site for information.
