Grow Wild is offering grants of £2,000 to 20 community groups from across the UK to join their Grow wild programme in 2025. This program wants community projects transforming urban spaces for the benefit of people and wildlife through planting UK native plants.
New to UK native species? Or never grown before? No problem!
Groups of all experience levels and even growing for the first time can apply.
The Grow Wild Community Programme supports non-profit groups and organisations to transform urban spaces for the benefit of people and wildlife by planting and championing UK native plants or fungi. Grow Wild is the national outreach programme of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. These projects contribute to Kew’s mission to understand and protect plants and fungi for the wellbeing of people and the future of all life on Earth.
