Deer Habitat improvement partnership

Creating Wildlife Habitat​​
Picture
The Michigan Deer Habitat Improvement grant program is designed to foster productive relationships between the DNR, sportsmen's organizations, concerned citizens, and other partners. The program aims to  produce deer habitat improvement benefits and educate the public about the importance of the work and the scientific principles involved in it. This initiative is targeted for implementation in the Upper Peninsula and MCCD has been awarded this grant for several years. At our DHIP sites we remove invasive species, add native plants, and work to improve soil quality.
