Congratulations to the 2022 Budding Botanist grantees! These eighteen programs will be awarded $1,000 to support the development of youth gardens that help kids learn about plants, explore their world, and inspire them to take care of their local ecosystems. The Budding Botanist Grant, presented by KloraneUSA Botanical Foundation and KidsGardening, is designed to support programs that teach respect for the environment and protect nature through the preservation of plant species and biodiversity.
