Care for our Natural Resources

 "Past, Present and Future of Conservation Districts"

Our History

Our Mission

Soil Conservation Districts began in 1937 when the U.S. was in the middle of an ecological disaster -
​The Dust Bowl.  
The Wood County Soil Conservation District was chartered July 8, 1949. 

Dedicated to the care of the environment through responsible land and water policies, conservation practices, development, oversight and environmental education.

Our Vision

To be recognized as the lead Wood County Agency providing innovative tools to protect natural resources and enhance the quality of life for present and future generations.
