School Shade Grants program

Victorian Government schools may be eligible for up to $25,000 to plant trees as part of their Schools Shade Grants Program.

The Victorian Government provides grants for shade development in parks, playgrounds, sports clubs and schools, and provides grants for the planting of natural shade (trees) as well as building and repairing shade structures.

To apply, register your interest by Thursday 24 March 2016. For more information visit the Victorian Government Schools Shade Grants program website.

Queensland has a similar program, 2016 SunSmart Share Initiative, however this initiative appears only to apply to shade structures, such as shade sales, and not the planting of trees.

 If you know of any other grants in your State or Territory, please let us know so we can share with the wider kitchen garden community. Email our Communications Coordinator, Claire, at claire@kitchengardenfoundation.org.au
