About this award
The City of Munising received a $1,241,500 Project Grant award dated June 16, 2025, from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service (Region 9 - Eastern Region) under the Community Forest and Open Space Conservation Program (CFDA 10.689). The grant funds the acquisition of 376 acres of land in Alger County, Michigan, to establish the Munising Community Forest. This project will protect privately-owned forestland from conversion to non-forest uses while delivering measurable community benefits including environmental conservation, recreational access, sustainable forest management opportunities, forest-based educational programming, and economic benefits derived from timber and non-timber products.
The award is structured with an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2029, allowing the City of Munising approximately four years to complete the land acquisition and establish community access to the forestland. As a competitive grant program, the Community Forest and Open Space Conservation Program prioritizes applications that demonstrate high levels of public participation, particularly from underserved communities, alongside substantial non-federal cost-share contributions. This project represents a strategic investment in community forest establishment in Michigan's Eastern Region and aligns with the program's national priorities for landscape conservation and public benefit delivery through fee simple land acquisition.
