Environmental Education Grant
The Pike County Conservation District Board of Directors are again offering a $500 Environmental Education Project grant for Pike County teacher/classrooms or youth organizations to fund projects that complement the mission of the District:
Pike County Conservation District is committed to the long-term protection and sustainable use of Pike County’s natural resources. We accomplish this through partnership, education, technical assistance, planning, enforcement, and leadership.
Since 2005, this program has reached over 3,500 students and awarded $11,500 to all three School Districts in Pike County for a variety of projects.
These projects have included a native plant hydroponics system, a composting program, natural pest control research, several native plant gardens, and more!
The 2024 application period is now closed. The 2025 application period will open in January 2025, and application materials will be posted at that time.

Sediment (dirt) in streams is the single largest pollution source to PA’s waterways.
Contact the PCCD office when planning any project where you will be digging or moving soil. We can help advise you about ways to decrease the sediment pollution that is created.
