NATIONAL HEAD START ASSOCIATION AND THE GROMOREGOOD GARDEN GRANTS

The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation celebrated its fifth year of collaboration with the National Head Start Association (NHSA) to bring GroMoreGood Garden Grants and gardening resources to Head Start and Early Head Start programs across the United States. NHSA partners with local Head Start and Early Head Start grant recipients to provide opportunities for children and families to lead healthier, empowered lives through child, family and community support programs. Through our ongoing partnership, Head Start and Early Head Start programs receive access to educational garden curriculum including seasonal garden storytime webinars. Additionally, the Foundation awards GroMoreGood Garden Grants used to supplement needs of existing garden projects, to help launch new garden projects, or to supplement or launch outdoor green space projects for Head Start and Early Head Start programs across the country. These grants encourage experiential learning, foster curiosity and provide children and their families with the benefits of access to healthy foods and green spaces.

These are the achievements from the past five years:

10,000+ youth impacted

5,000+ adults benefitted

58 grant winners in 26 states and Washington, D.C.
