Welcome to the Woodford County Conservation District! Our mission is to promote conservation of land and aquatic resources in a developed environment through stewardship, education, and technical assistance.

A growing nation such as ours puts strong demands on our natural resources.  With increasing markets for our raw materials, pressure is placed on our agricultural farm land to produce the crops necessary to meet these demands.  At the same time, other land uses are taking up large blocs of prime agricultural land each year removing this land from production forever.  To maintain a sufficient amount of our natural resources for future generations, while providing the necessary elements for growth, places strong responsibilities on mankind.

It is with the realization of the needs and problems concerning our natural resources that the Woodford County Conservation District strives to educate the public on protecting our environment.  What we accomplish as individuals is minimum compared to what we have and can accomplish with united efforts.
