Land, Trail, and Habitat Conservation Funding
GrantID: 78419
Grant Funding Amount Low: $3,500
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $13,000
Summary
Capacity and continuation work is funded for regional conservation priorities. Funds may be used for agricultural land preservation, easements, wetlands protection, habitat rehabilitation, invasive species removal, and scenic resource protection. Projects may also improve public access to environmentally important areas through greenways, parks, recreation areas, bike paths, trails, wildflower gardens, and related public spaces.
The program appears to use discretionary conservation support rather than a clearly published application cycle or fixed award structure. Nonprofit organizations, public agencies, community groups, and other project sponsors may inquire because formal applicant limits are not specified. Applicants with land protection, restoration, public access, or environmental advocacy projects may be considered when their work aligns with local preservation interests.
Geographic fit is centered on the New York and Vermont border area, especially communities near East Hoosick, West Bennington, Hoosick, Bennington, White Creek, Petersburg, Pownal, and Shaftsbury. Regional proposals should emphasize direct benefit to natural, agricultural, environmental, or scenic resources in these communities.
Awards may be treated as project cost assistance for conservation work, public access improvements, restoration activities, or capital purchases.
