2023 Shade Your Stream Grant Program Requests Proposals

Non-point source pollution poses many threats to aquatic and human life across the Tennessee River Basin.

In 2020, Tennessee River Basin Network partners voiced their concern about this growing threat and the need to collectively increase capacity to address it. In response, the Tennessee River Basin Network launched a Shade Your Stream grant program in 2021. This program supports individuals and organizations that empower people and their communities to effectively safeguard their watershed’s aquatic and human life through outreach and a handson, cost-effective, user-friendly riparian restoration technique.

The Tennessee River Basin Network announces a third year of financial and technical assistance for watershed and community organizations, municipalities, academic organizations, and non-profits across the Tennessee River Basin  to implement a Shade Your Stream project.
