Lawns to Legumes

Run by Metro Blooms, Lawns to Legumes offers financial support and educational opportunities for homeowners that are interested in establishing pollinator habitat on their properties . The program offers free resources on planting pollinator gardens, meadows, lawns, and trees, along with offering funding for these types of plantings. Up to $350 in reimbursements are offered through this program upon completion of pollinator habitat if you are awarded a grant. This is a cost-share program, meaning grantees must match their awarded grant by 25%. Lawns to Legumes has specific expectations for planting and maintenance, including, but not limited to, locally sourced seeds, scattered bloom times, eliminating pesticides, and committing to watering and weeding.
