The Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) is accepting applications for the spring 2025 Lawns to Legumes pollinator habitat grants program.
Donor Name: Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources
This initiative aims to enhance habitat for at-risk pollinators in residential areas throughout Minnesota by offering reimbursement-based funding, workshops, coaching, and gardening resources.

The program also includes Pollinator Pathways grants, which are pollinator programs run by local governments and nonprofit organizations with support from BWSR, and a public education campaign to raise awareness about creating pollinator habitat. BWSR is partnering with Metro Blooms and Blue Thumb – Planting for Clean Water to administer the program.
