Nature's Path empowers 21 community gardens for 2021, through Gardens for Good program
Organic breakfast brand grows giveback initiative to support non-profit garden projects.
Nature’s Path is significantly expanding their annual Gardens for Good Program to help recognize the wonderful work community gardens are doing across the U.S. and Canada. Nature’s Path will support 21 community gardens with $5,000 each. Applications will be accepted starting on February 5th, with special focus on gardens founded by and serving, Black, Indigenous and communities of color.
“We believe fresh, nutritious food should be accessible to all, and we are deeply troubled that the reality of our food system does not reflect this,” said Jyoti Stephens, VP Mission and Strategy at Nature’s Path. “Due to the pandemic, access to healthy, fresh food has become even more challenging. That’s why we decided to expand our grants to reach seven times the number of gardens we have supported in previous years. We believe community gardens feed more than just bellies, but also people’s hearts and souls.”
