We invite proposals for projects that help youth learn more about Idaho’s trees, forests, and forest products. Special consideration will be given to projects that get youth out in a forest; in contact with a logger, forester, or other natural resource worker; or into a facility that grows trees, processes, or uses wood products (e.g. sawmill, paper mill, furniture maker, building site, lumberyard, box maker, etc.).

Who: Teachers and others who work with youth in Idaho.
What: Grants of up to $1,000 to support forest-related education of Idaho’s youth.
Applications Open: August 1
Application Deadline: October 15
Notification: Applicants will be notified of decisions by October 31.
