Conservation Opportunity Fund

The grant focuses on supporting projects that improve or create wildlife habitats on small land tracts. It targets specific causes such as establishing pollinator habitats with native plants, creating rain gardens to manage stormwater and enhance water quality, developing early successional habitats to support a variety of wildlife, and planting vegetated buffers to reduce erosion and improve water conditions. Annual funding of up to $1,500 is available, with the stipulation that the awarded amount can vary based on the discretion of the program administrators.
