Funding Available to Forest Landowners for Restoration

INDIANA - Forestry landowners around the state should note that applications to receive funds from Indiana's Woodland Restoration Program (IWRP) will be accepted from July 1 through July 31.

The summer program is aimed to provide incentives funds for enhancing or establishing woodland conservation practices such as tree planting for reforestation, follow-up weed control on established tree plantings, timber stand improvement, preharvest grapevine control, tree pruning, establishment of riparian buffers and invasive plant species control.

Those interested should contact their District Forester, or the DNR Division of Forestry at (317) 232-4105. For additional information and a map of the nearest District Forester location, visit www.in.gov/dnr/forestry, then click on “Private Landowner Assistance.”

No applications will be accepted after July 31 for this year's summer IWRP enrollment.
