CONSERVATION GRANT PROGRAM for 2024

District to Award Conservation Mini-Grants to Kalkaska County Residents

The Kalkaska Conservation District (KCD) is pleased to announce the 2024 Conservation Grants Program. Grants are available to the public for conservation-related projects to be implemented in Kalkaska County. KCD is anticipating awarding up to $15,000 for 6 - 10 projects across Kalkaska County. Grants will range between $500 - $10,000 each. KCD seeks proposals for a variety of projects that directly improve the health of Kalkaska’s water, soil, natural resources, and environment.

The application deadlines are the 15th day of March, June, and September. Applications received after a deadline will be considered in the following round of grants. All applicants will be notified if they are or are not recipients of an award no later than the end of the month the application was due. Awardees will receive their funds at the start of the project period and must have all funds spent in one year unless the project schedule is extended with approval of KCD. If you have any further questions about the grant application process, please email kalkaskacd@macd.org or call 231-258-3307.
