The BLM OR-WA is offering this grant to advance plant conservation efforts in Oregon and Washington. This program focuses on critical activities aimed at preserving rare and important plant species. Grantees will be responsible for collecting seeds and germplasm from plants in their natural habitats (in-situ) and for long-term conservation through artificial propagation (ex-situ storage). The grant supports research, testing, storage, and maintenance of germplasm, alongside the reintroduction of species into their native environments. Furthermore, a key purpose of this grant is to foster public understanding and engagement in plant conservation by providing training opportunities for students and volunteers, and developing comprehensive educational materials and programs for the community.
