Kids Garden Month 2024
April is Kids Garden Month!
Kids Garden Month is our annual celebration of kids in the garden! Each April, we host a contest to celebrate kid gardeners, as well as lifting up the many positive benefits gardening has on kids and their communities.
This year, we are asking kids to share their favorite thing about gardening, or why kids should garden!
Entries can be from individuals, classrooms, or other groups of young gardeners. Entries are judged on creativity, originality, and enthusiasm. Kids can submit short videos, art, photographs, or creative writing.
Nine winners will be chosen, including one grand prize winner! Kids can win up to $500 plus gardening gear for their youth garden.
