To be eligible to apply for 2021 Project Canopy Assistance grants,
all applicants must attend a grant workshop prior to submitting an application (excluding previous workshop attendees). The grant workshop is web-based and is scheduled for February 3, 2021 at 1 PM, and will cover topics including grant writing, project development, sustainable community forestry management, and grant administration.
Grant applications will be due to the Maine forest Service at 5:00 pm on Friday, March 12, 2021. All grants require a 50% match from the grant recipient in cash or in-kind services.
Project Canopy is funded by the USDA Forest Service Community Forestry Assistance Program. The USDA Forest Service Urban and Community Forestry Program was authorized by the Cooperative Forestry Assistance Act of 1978 (PL95-313) and revised by the 1990 Farm Bill (PL101-624) to promote natural resource management in populated areas and improve quality of life.
