Rebuild With A Waterwise Garden

Resource Central is partnering with Community Foundation Boulder County to offer perennial, waterwise Garden In A Box kits to any fire-affected homes that were damaged or destroyed in the 2021 Marshall Fire in an effort to assist in the rebuild effort. Qualifying homes will be eligible to receive up to two 100 square foot gardens for free as well as access to volunteer planting help as needed. We are hoping this partnership assists our community in rebuilding “home”, which includes your yard!

TO GET STARTED fill out the online interest form and we’ll be in touch.

Please note, your property must be listed as damaged or destroyed to qualify.

Eligibility
