The application round for 2028 funding will open November 2, 2026. Applications will be due early February, 2027. CFT grants are used to buy or conserve sites that will be used as parks and open spaces - for example, urban greenspaces and parks, natural areas, sites for habitat and stream restoration, forests, community gardens, farms, and trails.
These open spaces may be used for passive recreation. We may be able to partner on green stormwater acquisitions or create parks near affordable housing . CFT grants can be made to local governmental agencies and eligible nature conservancy or historic preservation nonprofits.
First-time nonprofit applicants: please visit our nonprofit page for more information; our entry point for nonprofits is during the summer prior to the grant round to ensure adequate time to review organizational capacity and financial readiness. In communities that have been under-served with open space investments, CFT funding may be able to cover 100% of the acquisition costs for some projects.
Please visit the match waiver page for details . CFT Application Guidance - please read for guidance on maps & submittal process.
