Invasives Removal
Cost Share Program
The District is proud to announce that we are the recipients of a Clean Water Indiana Grant that will assist landowners with the cost of invasives plant removal from their woodlands! We are partnering with our neighbors to the north in St. Joseph County SWCD and will be able to help 10 landowners with between 10 and 20 acres of woodlands, and 20 landowners with less than 10 acres.
Applications continue to be received and will be reviewed and selected based on a ranking system similar to the one used in the federal NRCS EQIP program. Recipients will be notified and technical guidance for implementation will be provided, after which removal can begin! We look forward to being able to assist landowner with this increasingly important natural resource concern.
