Urban Community Forestry Planning Grant

The Urban and Community Forestry Planning Grant Program is available to support projects that will help local governmental entities and non-profit organizations collect baseline data that can be used to inform future forest management decisions. Such projects may include, but are not limited to, conducting inventories of street and/or park trees, creating urban and community forest management plans, developing monitoring programs to document tree condition, and surveys of urban forested natural areas, and applicants should articulate how final products will be used to promote data driven urban forest management into the future. The maximum individual award is $65,000, with 50% match required.
