Nature's Path Organic Foods Announces its 2023 Gardens for Good Winners

Nature's Path Organic Foods, North America's leading organic breakfast and snack food company, is pleased to announce the 15 winners of its 2023 Gardens for Good program. The grant recipients – 10 organic community gardens from the United States and 5 from Canada – were selected for the meaningful role they play in making fresh, nutritious organic fruits and vegetables accessible in their communities.

"Gardens for Good embodies our commitment to helping make organic food accessible to all," says Jyoti Stephens, VP of Mission and Strategy at Nature's Path Organic Foods. "These gardens strengthen their communities, not only by growing organic food for those who need it most but by creating spaces where people can learn and grow together."

Nature's Path Organic Foods will donate $7,500 each to the 15 deserving gardens, totaling more than $100,000. The 2023 winners were selected using a comprehensive judging process which includes: public voting, the ability to establish and maintain a garden, the compelling nature in which the garden is described, and the demonstrated need within the community.  They represent a diverse range of projects and communities, all with the common goal of sustainable, community-centered organic growing.
