Arbor Day Grants and Environmental Conservation
The Dept. of Environmental Conservation is accepting grant applications for urban and community forestry projects that provide environmental, economic and social benefits to New York State Urban communities. Projects include tree inventories, management plans, tree planting, and maintenance and green infrastructure projects, such as storm-water management projects, green roofs or rain gardens. In addition, $1,000 Quick Start Arbor Day grants are available to help communities support the beginnings of a tree program by having an Arbor Day celebration. For more information contact the Dept. of Environmental Conservation at 518-402-9425 or mckramar@gw.dec.state.ny.us
