The South Mountain Partnership is now accepting applications for 2023 Mini-Grants to further the Partnership's mission to conserve landscape resources that enrich the quality of life and a sense of place of the citizens and communities.

The deadline for applications is May 26.

The South Mountain Partnership Mini-Grant Program was developed in 2009 and is administered by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy. Financial support is provided by the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources through the [Growing Greener] Environmental Stewardship Fund.

To date, more than $500,000 in grants have been awarded through 69 grants, with more than $1 million in matching funds leveraged by the grantees – a return of more than double.
