Gift Irrigation to a School Garden

BGF has been working for several months with many underserved local schools to revive and restore their outdoor educational spaces for students after pandemic-related school closures last year.

Your direct donation of $500 will help repair irrigation systems that break down due to weather, animals, and other wear and tear. Besides healthy soil and seeds, repairing irrigation systems is the top request we’ve received from school garden administrators.

The Berry Good Food School Garden Grant program awards annual grants to San Diego County schools and educational organizations that support garden projects that enhance the teaching of agriculture and healthy eating. In addition to helping various San Diego schools, we have also supplied funds to build gardens at an elementary school and an orphanage in Baja. BGF plans to resume the school garden grant application and award process in Fall 2022 after completing its current school garden revitalization project.
