Conservation Districts
Conservation Districts are local government entities established to promote the conservation of natural resources, such as soil, water, and wildlife. They work with landowners, farmers, and communities to implement sustainable practices that protect the environment. These districts often provide education, technical assistance, and funding for conservation projects.
Each Conservation District operates independently, guided by a board of directors elected by local residents. They collaborate with various organizations, including U.S. Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources Conservation Service, to address local environmental issues and enhance the health of ecosystems within their regions.
