Bay Area Barns and Trails (BABTT) Grant Program Suspended *
Since 2000 BABTT has helped conservation minded equestrians preserve and restore natural areas and wildlife habitat, maintain parks and public open space, equestrian facilities, trails and trailheads by awarding $147,208 in matching funds to thirty-nine land trusts, agencies and/or equestrian organizations.
Unfortunately, BABTT must suspend its 2010 ‘new’ grant program. However, we have reserved funds to support ‘pending’ projects when agency/landowner approvals are received.
Please join up so that BABTT can reinvigorate its support for stewardship and acquisition projects.
