2025-26 Community Gardens Grants Program
Green thumbs in our community organisations and local government authorities are encouraged to apply for grants of up to $10,000 as part of the State Government's Community Garden Grants Program.
Grants provided through this program will support the establishment and development of sustainable, edible community gardens in Western Australian to enable community members to:
- participate more actively in community life
- develop and implement skills
- give back to the community.
Getting involved in local community garden projects can help people to improve community connections, develop new skills and share physical, social and mutual benefits of growing edible produce.
Grant funding may be used for:
- garden feasibility, planning and design
- development of garden policies and manuals
- evaluation of an existing garden and its programs
- training, workshops and other garden-related events held at the community garden
- capacity building for garden volunteers
- engagement strategies and initiatives to generate community interest and participation
- advertising, promotion and signage of the garden and related activities
- consumable garden items, such as plants, seedlings, fertiliser
- infrastructure and minor capital equipment.
