This bill appropriates funds to support the Minnesota State Horticultural Society, specifically allocating $100,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $110,000 for fiscal year 2027. The funds are designated for the commissioner of agriculture to enhance resources and training for home gardeners, educators, community gardeners, and urban farmers, focusing on the unique challenges posed by Minnesota's cold climate growing conditions.

The new legal language introduced in this bill emphasizes the importance of providing targeted support to various groups involved in horticulture, ensuring they have the necessary tools and knowledge to thrive in Minnesota's agricultural landscape. This initiative aims to foster a stronger gardening community and improve agricultural practices within the state.
