The NRCS-led Sage Grouse Initiative is pioneering a conservation approach that invites cooperation over conflict across the West. This recipe for success is transferable locally and statewide, as evidenced by a new MOU signed by Governor Bullock and NRCS Chief Jason Weller today in Montana.

The Montana Association of Conservation Districts uses its connections and experience to run a collaborative mini-grants program that delivers on-the-ground habitat improvements for sage grouse that cross public and private borders.
