Mission

Our Mission is to promote the green industries in Minnesota through support of research, education and outreach at the University of Minnesota and elsewhere.

The MTGF pursues its mission in various ways. One of these is an annual "Call For Proposals", titled the "MTGF Research Gift Program", whereby researchers, instructors and outreach faculty and staff involved in turf and grounds work may submit requests for unrestricted gifts to support their activities. As a 501(c)(3) corporation, funding approved by the MTGF will not be subjected to overhead or other indirect charges or costs. The dates for submission, review and approval may change on an annual basis as well as the protocol stipulated for the submission of gift requests.
