A special round of Forest Legacy Program (FLP) funding is giving landowners an opportunity to ensure forest conservation benefits for generations to come.
FLP is a conservation program administered by the U.S. Forest Service in partnership with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture’s Division of Forestry to protect privately-owned forest lands from conversion to non-forest uses through conservation easements or land purchases. Federal grant funds pay for conservation easements that restrict development and allow landowners to continue to own and manage their land.
Project proposals may be submitted now through Jan. 19, 2024 at 4:30 p.m. CST.
Find the request for proposal package and more information about Tennessee’s FLP on the Tennessee Department of Agriculture website and Facebook page.
