Tree Trust has autumn funds for winter projects
31 January 2012
Landowners with planting projects planned for winter may be eligible for assistance from the Taranaki Tree Trust – but they need to act now to secure funding.
The Trust is calling for applications between 1 February and 1 March for its first funding round for the year. It makes grants to support Taranaki projects which protect and restore wetlands, bush remnants, the coast and wildlife habitat. It is also keen to support projects which enhance community areas such as marae, schools and reserves.
Grants of between $300 and $5,000 will be made. The Trust will contribute up to 75% of the total cost of a school or community group project, and up to 50% for a project on private land. The total cost includes cash, and the dollar value of any ‘in kind’ contributions such as labour.
Applicants will be notified of the outcome in April and those who secure funding must use it within two years.
Applications can be made online using the Trust’s newly launched website, www.taranakitreetrust.org.nz
