Water Wise Garden Grant
San Diego elementary school garden friends! We are so excited to share that the 2025 Water Wise Garden Grant is now open.
We are working together with Hunter Industries to offer the Water Wise Garden Grant to support public and charter elementary schools in San Diego County planning to teach about water conservation, water stewardship, and responsible water management through gardening. In 2025, five elementary schools in San Diego County will be awarded $1,000 in funding and an irrigation supply kit valued at $500.
The irrigation supply kit provides materials for two or three 4’ X 8’-raised beds. It includes a timer, pressure regulator adapter, pressure regulator, 100-foot roll of irrigation tubing, 100-foot roll of emitter irrigation tubing, elbows/tees/couplers, end caps, and a tube cutting knife.
If this collection of supplies is not a good fit for your garden’s needs, a custom kit of equal value can be developed with the assistance of a professional irrigation contractor.
This grant is available to San Diego County elementary schools only, and the deadline for application submission is Friday, September 13, 2024, at 11:59 pm PT.
Next year, this grant will be open to schools nationwide, so stay tuned if this grant sounds like something your school is interested in!
