Community Backyards Participation |
Community Backyards is closed for the season. Please check back in spring 2020.
Ready to go green? Earn $50 for your yard by participating in the online course and quiz or attending an in-person workshop! Community Backyards participants will automatically be enrolled to be a GreenSpot after receiving their voucher. Becoming a GreenSpot is a requirement of the program. Why? Well, there are a couple reasons.
- It's Easy! By implementing one of the backyard conservation rebate practices, you're already working on going green!
- Rebates are provided by the City of Columbus and participating communities. Without their support, funding would not be available for rebates.
Listed below are participating communities along with eligible rebate items. Rebates are limited to one reimbursement for each household. Not sure which community you fall under? We verify addresses online through The Franklin County Auditor and determine eligibility by your primary tax district.
***Your primary tax district may be different than your postal/mailing address***
