Default Government Habitat Programs

I'm pretty new to all of this, so I thought I would ask if anyone knew of some ideas. Recently I purchasedfarmstead with 20 Acres of land, with a small creek going through it. Right now it is basically ungrazed pasture with broam and native glass, with trees along the drainage.

Here's a picture



What I would like to do is basically make a small Wildlife Santuary. I would really like to put some tall grasses like CRP, throughout the whole pasture. I also plan on plantingmany more trees, mainly along the road, so game can feel more secure.

I remember reading something about the CRP program being scraped by the government recently. I'm not sure if I would meet the standards of it anyways. I'm not looking to make any money, just seeing seeing what type of programs may be out thereto helpsomeone wanting to improve the Habitat for Wildlife, like in my case. As you can tell, I'm pretty green to all of this. Thanks for any help.
