The Extension Master Gardener Volunteer Association of Lenoir County (EMGV) is excited to announce their annual Horticulture Grant to inspire Lenoir County educators to bring hands-on gardening and environmental learning into the classroom.

This grant opportunity is open to teachers, media coordinators, guidance counselors, and others.

Through a horticulture project, students can:
🌱 Expand their vocabulary and strengthen math skills
🔬 Discover the science of how food is grown
🌍 Build real-world connections between learning and the environment

Funding may support projects such as:
🌸 Specialty gardens
🐛 Beneficial insects
🌱 Worm culture
🍂 Composting
💧 Rain barrels

Funding may be used for projects such as specialty gardens, beneficial insects, worm culture, composting, and rain barrels. The deadline to apply is Friday, October 31, 2025, by 5:00 p.m., and grants will be awarded in person at the EMGV Christmas Banquet on December 9, 2025, at the Lenoir County Cooperative Extension Office. Recipients are encouraged to purchase equipment and supplies locally from Kinston businesses to further support our community.
