Attention All Landowners: Deschutes County SWCD 2009/2010 Small Grant Program is Here!
Funding for The Small Grant Program is generated through Oregon lottery dollars and is a voluntary program that works within your framework and objectives to enhance and preserve natural resources on your property. Some of the goals for maximizing resource potential include: soil stabilization (reducing erosion in uplands and riparian), native bunchgrass and perennial grass recovery and enrichment, weed control, in-stream and riparian enhancements, irrigation efficiency, improve wildlife habitat, increase water quantity and improve water quality.
