THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Education, Youth Gardens, Environmental Education, School Garden
Deadline: Oct. 1, 2025
“In 2026, the Herb Society of America will award 15 grants to schools for planting, expanding or improving an herb garden. Established more than a decade ago from the generous gift of Don Samull, an elementary school teacher, the grant now awards $500 for the purchase of supplies such as soil, plants, and gardening tools.
The benefits of the Samull Grant extend beyond learning garden skills and how to grow and care for herbs. Reports from grant recipients described increased community involvement which strengthened connections and teamwork among faculty, staff, students and their families. The herb gardens help increase the students’ connection to their schools and to their ethnic heritage. Gardening often introduces them to herbs and how the plants can enhance lives through culinary uses and for wellness. Participation in the planning and planting of the herb gardens help strengthen math and creative thinking skills.”
Funder: The Herb Society of America
