AMES 2020 Tool Grant

The Ames Companies, the largest manufacturer of garden tools in the U.S., has generously agreed to extend its in-kind grant program for 2020 with National Garden Club, Inc. This year’s list of tools that may be requested includes a group of tools sized for children and a group of lighter weight and mid-sized tools (indicated as floral tools) which may be helpful for use in garden therapy projects.

Ames has set aside $4,500 (retail value) in garden tools available for local community gardening projects during the 2020 calendar year. NGC local member clubs are eligible to apply for a grant of Ames tools for gardening projects performed or supported by the club which are scheduled to be carried out March 1-September 30, 2020.
