Thanks to the generosity of the Bloomington Health Foundation, scholarships for garden plot rental are available to individuals that find the fees a barrier to participation*. We will prioritize applicants who currently receive assistance from the government programs listed below. Scholarships will cover half of the cost of a garden plot and are limited to one garden plot per household. Half of the scholarship funds will be reserved for returning gardeners and half of the funds will be reserved for gardeners new to the program in 2024.

If you’re interested in receiving a scholarship for a community garden plot rental, please fill out this form with current contact information and a representative from the Community Gardening Program will contact you by email. 

Current contact information is required for consideration. There are a few optional questions that help us understand who we're serving and help us secure funding in the future.

*Available while funding lasts.
