Small grants available for 2027 planting season
We’re thrilled to share that the next round of Landcare Tasmania’s TLF Plant Grant is just around the corner!
This small grant supports ongoing, member-led projects focused on native revegetation. It's a fantastic opportunity to enhance biodiversity on your local patch, with plants suited to your specific site conditions. This grant round will include funding for a total of 4,000 plants for our members' projects during the 2027 planting season!
How to apply
Landcare Tasmania members who have submitted Project Bank proposals that include a planting component will be invited to apply via email in June 2026. Members can apply for up to 300 native plants, along with guards and stakes for protection. Read the guidelines for more information on eligibility and plant selection:
* Please note that if you are a member of a Community Care Group, the application will need to be submitted by the Community Care Group, unless you hold an individual or associate membership. Any application submitted by a non-member will not be considered.
** Please be aware that if you intend to apply on behalf of an organisation (such as a farm) then you must hold a membership for that organisation as an Associate member.
