Community Gardens Grant Program

After selling The Compost Exchange in the Fall of 2023, I decided to create a grant program designed to provide 3-bin compost systems for the 5013C certified non-profit community gardens located in the Columbus area. I build these systems financed with my grant, using discarded wooden pallets I collect from local companies. If you manage or are a member of a local certified non-profit community garden and would like me to build one for your organization, use the link below to send me a note expressing your interest, along with the name and email address of the garden manager. I will send a grant application straight away.

Many Thanks!
