Approximately 10 Grant awards will be made. Each award will consist of $3,500 and Fiskars® items totaling $1,500.
Many students are required to perform community service. This would be fantastic for high school students, through the school, to beautify the community!
The Project Orange Thumb® Grant Program is intended to recognize projects that will make differences in their communities through unique community garden initiatives while demonstrating and communicating how a small group of people can make changes that affect and involve the entire community.
Project Orange Thumb® is intended to promote new garden space; therefore the applicant’s effort must involve a new garden, meaning that a garden must not have previously existed in the space(s) identified in the application.
Grant applicants who wish to be considered for the Project Orange Thumb® Garden Makeover can opt-in by marking the designated spot on the application form. One Garden Makeover will be awarded in 2013. The Garden Makeover consists of installation by Fiskars of a vegetable/ornamental garden with a minimum size of 75’ X 75’.
Application Deadline: Dec. 15, 2012
