Jamba Juice: It’s All About the Fruit

The Jamba Juice It’s All About the Fruit grant program provides schools with fruit trees to create engaging nutrition and gardening experiences. Observing and exploring fruit production gives a deeper understanding and appreciation for this essential element of our diet.

Maximum award: fruit trees valued at $500 and the Jamba Juice It’s All About the Fruit Youth Garden Guide; trees will be selected based on recommended varieties for each area. Eligibility: schools and community garden programs in the United States gardening with at least 15 children between the ages of 3 and 18. Deadline: March 10, 2014.
