About this award
The Maine Mountain Collaborative will receive $600,000 through a two-year Project Grant from the US Department of Agriculture National Resources Conservation Service. The grant is part of the Environmental Quality Incentives Program and will support the Environmental Innovation Forest Initiative, which seeks to pair philanthropic and private capital to acquire and manage forest land in Maine. Over the grant period, the Collaborative will work to improve approximately 1,000 acres of forest to produce more timber while also providing ecological benefits such as enhanced wildlife habitat and increased carbon storage. The initiative aims to demonstrate forest management approaches that optimize both environmental quality and agricultural production on non-industrial private forest lands, consistent with the goals of the EQIP program.
