Watershed Guardian Grant Information and Materials

Watershed Guardian Grant

The Northeast Iowa Stormwater Education Program is excited to support school classes in implementing stormwater management projects.

Grant Update:

Watershed Guardian Grant Implementation projects are currently being implemented throughout Northeast Iowa. Because of the great success of the program so far, only Watershed Guardian Tree Grants of up to $1,000 are still available. These $1,000 grants can be used to purchase and plant trees at your school, student’s homes, or anywhere in the community. Examples of tree projects include installation of a community orchard, the replacement of ash trees affected by the Emerald Ash Borer throughout your community, and many more.
