An overview of the Forestry Grant Scheme and contact information.

Scotland’s woodlands and forests are a vital national resource and play an important role in rural development and sustainable land use. During the Scottish Rural Development Programme 2014–2020, £277 million will be available through the Forestry Grant Scheme (FGS).

You can apply for support under these headings:

• Woodland creation – contributing towards the Scottish Government target of 10,000 hectares of new woodlands per year.
• Woodland improvement and sustainable management of forests.
