This grant is for the purpose of fostering natural resource stewardship and tribal engagement. The BLM seeks to fund projects that establish greenhouses at Native American schools and colleges. Students will cultivate native plants, including sagebrush, grasses, forbs, and willow cuttings. These plants will then be utilized by the BLM and other agencies for essential restoration efforts, while also serving Native American ceremonies. The cultivated plants can also be purchased by the BLM, other agencies, or tribal members. A primary objective is to strengthen relationships with tribal communities and inspire youth to pursue interests in natural resource management, creating a sustainable educational and practical initiative.
