Columbia County Conservation District helped convert 1.5 acres of maintained lawn in Nescopeck, PA, into native meadow and upland forest with a mini-grant provided by PACD through the PACD Lawn Conversion Program for Conservation Districts. The project cost $6,444.05 in grant funding.

The Lawn Conversion Program for Conservation Districts is partially financed by a grant from the Community Conservation Partnerships Program, Environmental Stewardship fund, under the administration of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Recreation and Conservation.
