Native Vegetation Council (NVC) Restoration grants are for long term (5 - 10 year) projects that will provide a significant benefit to native vegetation by improving condition and increasing protection through a new Heritage Agreement. As such, these grants are not available for areas that are already protected e.g. by Heritage Agreement.

Grant rounds will be offered twice a year and will be open to select regions each round.

Round One was open to landowners in Northern and Yorke, Eyre Peninsula and SA Arid Land Landscapes SA regions and resulted in 9 successful applications sharing $7.14 million to restore 17,553 hectares of native vegetation.

Round Two was open to landowners in Murraylands and Riverland, Limestone Coast and Hills and Fleurieu and closed in May 2025.
