Sowing Seeds of Stewardship - Application
The Oklahoma County Conservation District is promoting land stewardship in urban areas by providing resources and technical assistance to support conservation projects that showcase the benefits of native plants in the areas of soil health, water conservation, and wildlife habitat. We invite individuals and organizations (schools, churches, nonprofits) to apply for funding to support their native plant projects (up to two $500 awards, up to four $250 awards, and multiple $50-100 awards will be made). Businesses are eligible to apply for small projects ($50-100). All applications must be received by 11:59PM CST on March 10th. 

Proposed projects should:
  • Address a resource concern through the use of native plants
  • Promote the benefits of native plants through an educational component
  • Provide a high-quality maintenance plan to ensure the project continues
Projects will be ranked based on how well they achieve these goals, and recipients will be notified by email.

All projects must be located within Oklahoma County to quality and only one application is allowed per applicant. Approved applicants must agree to display a small sign at their project location acknowledging the support of the Oklahoma County Conservation District (we will supply signs to all approved applicants).
