Summary
The organization provides annual grant opportunities to support research and educational projects focused on native plants and their conservation in the Pacific Northwest. One type of grant is aimed at individuals conducting field studies, particularly in areas that are less explored or under-studied. The funds can be used to cover expenses that directly support fieldwork, such as travel, lodging, supplies, and other necessary resources. Applicants do not need to be local residents or formal members of the organization to be considered.
Another opportunity is geared toward students pursuing studies in botany, ecology, or related fields. These awards help students gain practical experience, advance their education, and develop skills that can contribute to the understanding and preservation of native plant communities. Applicants typically provide academic information and a statement outlining their interest or project focus.
The purpose of these grants is to foster a deeper understanding of local plant ecosystems and to encourage involvement in conservation efforts. Projects supported may include documenting plant populations, surveying species, or collecting data that can inform broader environmental stewardship. The funding aims to make it easier for both researchers and students to pursue meaningful work in these areas.
Eligibility generally includes individual researchers for the field-focused grants and students for the educational awards. The opportunities are intended for projects within Oregon or the broader Pacific Northwest region. Applications are accepted on an annual basis, providing a consistent chance for interested individuals to receive support for their work. These grants are designed to inspire both professional and emerging scientists to engage with the region’s native flora while advancing conservation knowledge.
