America the Beautiful Fund is offering FREE SEEDS! to make the new
Millennium Green. Here is your chance to help feed hungry citizens and
improve your local parks, nursing homes, libraries, community gardens,
schools and other public spaces by planting vegetable and flower seed. Let
a garden be testament to your commitment to a better future. To ensure
your legacy, bury a time capsule marked with an excavation date in your
Millennium Garden. Include your community's history and aspirations so
that those who follow in your footsteps will "Honor the Past-Imagine the
Future".
These are 1999 seeds with germination rates of 85% to 90%. Grants of 100
to 1,000 seed packets are being offered on the basis of availability and
relative need.
Since the early days of America, part of the democratic spirit on which
this country was built took form in the sharing of gardening skills and
plants. As the Native Americans shared their plants with hungry Pilgrims,
so we now advocate plants as a means to promote charitable good
works. There has never been a better time to make a difference! To
request a FREE SEED! Grant simply:
