The Office of Environment and Heritage is now encouraging Hunter organisations to apply for the 2016/17 Restoration and Rehabilitation Grant Program.
Over $4 million is worth of grant funds is up for grabs for Hunter community groups and government entities.
The grant program aims to assist in the protection of ecosystems and the restoration of degraded environments.
Senior Team Leader for Contestable Grants Geoff Hudson says all relevant organisations should consider putting in an application.
"We encourage all groups and local community organisations to apply, as funding is available up to $100 000 over three years."
The program has been running for over 20 years, with 56 grants being awarded across the state last year.
