Description Program Srvc AccomDescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxtGrants And AllocationsGrantsAndAllocationsAmt
LAND ACQUISITION/PROTECTION - The Palouse Land Trust works with willing landowners to protect working lands, open space, and wildlife habitat in north-central Idaho and eastern Washington. The primary tool the Land Trust uses to accomplish this is a voluntary conservation agreement called a conservation easement. Since 1995, the Land Trust and local families have used conservation easements to protect threatened farmland, wildlife habitat and corridors, rare and endangered plants and habitats, and areas for the public to recreate and enjoy nature.$20,052
LAND STEWARDSHIP - Staff and board members monitor all Palouse Land Trust conservation easements and other projects encompassing 3,500 acres to ensure compliance with individual easement restrictions/language and to note any changes in the property. All monitoring data, such as photo points, are reported and entered into the permanent record.The Land Trusts fee simple land is also monitored. Staff and board members also organize volunteer work for pruning and improvements to the trails and habitat.$1,012
OUTREACH - The Palouse Land Trust strives to reach new audiences and constituents to describe how voluntary conservation easements can be used to protect private lands. This includes focusing on outreach to soil and water conservation districts within its service area (north-central Idaho and eastern Washington), and also focused on outreach to agricultural producers. As part of this, the Land Trust brings speakers in to a variety of conferences attended by district staff and agricultural producers, including the Idaho Cattle Association annual meeting, the North Idaho Grazing Conference, and a division meeting of local soil and water conservation districts.$26,080
