Submission Instructions
Description

The Virginia Department of Forestry's Office of Working Lands Preservation is accepting applications for the FY 2026 Local Purchase of Development Rights Program. The program supports local purchase-of-development-rights initiatives that compensate landowners who voluntarily place conservation easements on farm or forestland, thereby preserving working lands and restricting future development. The opportunity provides matching state grants through the Virginia Farmland and Forestland Preservation Fund to certified local purchase-of-development-rights programs. Applicants must review the Department of Forestry Grant FAQs before applying, and applications must be submitted through the SAP web-grants system; submissions through eVA are not accepted.
