The 2023 land trust grant program will fund up to fourteen grants via two tracks:
Capacity and Partnership Projects:

This is an annual grant cycle with the RFP for the small grant program opening in January and proposals due March 1. Funds are dispersed at the end of May.
The grant selection committee’s decisions will be based on the following considerations, summarized below as general evaluation criteria that pertain to all grants and grant specific evaluation criteria related to either the $5,000 or $25,000 grant tracks.
