Our Story
The Wood SWCD is dedicated to the wise use of local natural resources to address regional concerns. Natural resource concerns are increasing. Local ‘boots on the ground’ offers the assistance and availability of conservation dollars, conservation practices, and conservation education to improve the quality of life for present and future generations.
The district supervisors and staff work locally but think regionally. Western Lake Erie Basin does not stop at the water’s edge. The Wood SWCD partners with other districts, local farmers, county residents, and private entities to promote conservation practices from ag to urban communities. Educational activities, workshops, field days, and various media offers the opportunity for citizens to take an active part in conservation right where they live.
