Grant Programs/Initiatives

We work regularly with several grant programs that contribute funding to help landowners manage their properties for biodiversity and conservation concerns. We are familiar with these programs and the agency staff who administer them and can therefore assist you through the steps in the process and provide documentation that will strengthen your application. These programs include:

• The Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program (WHIP) through the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service

• The Landowner Incentives Program (LIP) through the US Fish and Wildlife Service

• The Partners for Wildlife Program through the US Fish and Wildlife Service

• The Community Preservation Act (Massachusetts)

• National Fish & Wildlife Foundation Grants

• Coopertative Weed Management Areas

There are several other federal, state and private foundation grant programs that support projects which have ecological goals and objectives.

We welcome the opportunity to be involved with a project from the very beginning stages and are available to contribute to or prepare grant applications.
