Funds to protect high quality wildlife habitat across the Heron Lake watershed have been made available through grants provided through Minnesota’s Outdoor Heritage Fund. Please contact Nick Bancks at nbancks@mnland.org or (651) 917-6282 with questions.
Completed applications will be prioritized by the Land Trust based on a competitive bid method which considers the ecological value and the amount a landowner would like to receive in compensation. Payment to a landowner for a purchased conservation easement is made upon finalizing a conservation easement with the Minnesota Land Trust.
