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.
