Bill > HF1483

This bill provides funding for the Minnesota State Horticultural Society by appropriating $100,000 in fiscal year 2026 and $110,000 in fiscal year 2027 from the state's general fund. The money will be allocated to the commissioner of agriculture specifically to support the society's efforts to provide resources and training to various gardening groups in Minnesota, including home gardeners, educators, community gardeners, and urban farmers. The funding is intended to help these groups develop and improve their gardening skills in Minnesota's challenging cold climate conditions, which can make agricultural and horticultural activities more difficult. By supporting the Minnesota State Horticultural Society, the bill aims to enhance local gardening knowledge, promote sustainable agriculture, and help residents successfully grow food and ornamental plants in the state's unique environmental context.
