Seedlings for Sustainable Habitat Restoration Act of 2025

This bill amends existing federal laws to expand funding for ecosystem restoration projects focused on native seeds and seedlings. It authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture (via the Forest Service) to provide contracts, grants, or agreements to state forestry agencies, nonprofits, universities, tribes, and multistate coalitions for two specific activities: (1) collecting and maintaining native seeds (including from managed seed orchards), and (2) producing seedlings for revegetation. The funding supports habitat restoration efforts by directly enabling these entities to source and grow native plant materials. The bill does not create new programs but integrates seed and seedling production into current restoration frameworks under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program.
