Prairie Watersheds Climate Program (PWCP)
The Prairie Watersheds Climate Program (PWCP) is led by the Manitoba Association of Watersheds (MAW) and delivered by Manitoba’s Watershed Districts and the Saskatchewan Association of Watersheds (SAW).
The PWCP provides up to $40 million in financial support, through OFCAF, to producers in Manitoba and Saskatchewan to accelerate their adoption and implementation of on-farm beneficial management practices (BMPs) to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, support production efficiency, sustainability and resiliency on their farm operations. To assist producers with their adoption of new BMPs, the program offers producers resources to support BMP implementation and provide BMP design recommendations.

Community Tree Program 2023
IMWD recognizes the environmental benefits that trees can provide, but that larger tree planting projects can be expensive. Each year a variety of tree species are ordered for the IMWD community tree program. Machines for tree planting and plastic mulch application are available for rental.
Individual Landowner: IMWD will provide young tree seedlings as per the cost schedule in the application for Community Trees; we are able to obtain cost savings by buying in bulk. Applications are accepted until March 24, 2023, with pick-up of the trees for planting at our Ethelbert office in the spring. Arrangements can be made for pick-up in Ste.Rose.
