Monument SWCD is a non-taxing small district that is solely supported by grant funds and grant funded projects. We write project proposals that seek funds for both administrative costs and on the ground restoration that supports clean and plentiful water and healthy productive soils. The vast majority of our projects are on private lands for agricultural producers, though we have and will work with local, state, tribal and federal partners on projects associated with their lands. We often leverage funds from partners and/or private landowners to accomplish large scale projects. Over the last 5 years the Monument SWCD has funded over 5 million dollars of grant funded projects in our small corner of Grant County.
