Whidbey Island Garden Tour Grant Recipients
Proceeds from the annual Whidbey Island Garden Tour are donated to selected causes, nonprofit and education organizations that support the improvement, restoration, education and maintenance of our common Whidbey Island habitat. Grant application projects emphasizing public space enhancement and education are of particular merit. Over the past 25 years, the tour and our sponsors have raised more than $500,000 for grants to over sixty causes meeting our mission objectives. Our 2022 Garden Tour Board awarded over $14,000 to these worthy causes.
