Charles County Tree Planting Grant Program

The Charles County Tree Planting Grant Program aims to implement tree planting projects in Charles County to increase tree cover in both urban and rural areas. The program seeks to enhance forest habitat, improve water quality, and provide natural cooling systems to combat urban heat, ultimately benefiting the health and wellbeing of local communities and watersheds. The Trust encourages applications from underrepresented groups and projects that promote community engagement. Eligible applicants include individuals, nonprofit organizations, commercial landowners, and contractors. The program has a rolling application process until funds are exhausted, with specific deadlines for different funding amounts.
