2025 Community Forestry Partnership

Cost-Share Grants

**DEADLINE for submission is MARCH 14, 2025**

ONLINE SUBMISSION INFORMATION

The Wyoming State Forestry Division, in cooperation with the USDA Forest Service, is making this funding available to assist in improving community forests throughout the state. These grants are intended for tree planting projects, community forestry program development projects, and/or program scholarships.

There are three grant categories: Tree Planting,  Program Development, and Program Scholarships. Below, you will find links for each individual cost-share grant. Grant applications are available on each page along with associated grant info. All grants will be submitted online through this portal.

If your community or organization is interested in competing for the community forestry funds, complete the application by March 14, 2025.  Grants must be matched with local, non-federal funds, and volunteers must be involved. A grant selection committee will review applications mid to late March 2025 and you will be notified of funding status at that time. These grants are intended to increase urban and community forestry development and tree planting in Wyoming communities, but not replace existing local funds. Details are included with the application. Please read the directions carefully. Incomplete or incorrect applications will not be reviewed by the grant selection committee.

If you have any questions about the Community Forestry Partnership Cost-Share Grants please feel free to contact Jacob Mares at (307) 777-3626. We will be happy to assist you with any questions you have regarding the grants.
