Testimonial
​
“Our small city has been looking to fund a critical trail gap closure for more than a decade. While our staff has local and technical knowledge, grant writing and presentation preparation do not come naturally to engineering-types. Thanks to their partnership, ForeverGreen Trails elevated our application materials to another level of engagement we could not have dreamed of.”
