Have opinions about how government money should be spent?
And which NRCS conservation practices should be funded?
Join Addison county farmers, landowners, and residents to contribute public comment on which conservation practices to prioritize. Funding is available to landowners for conservation practices through NRCS EQIP - and creating a funding pool through Otter Creek NRCD will allow funds to be set aside for local residents. This means funding is more likely to be awarded to farmers and landowners for conservation practices they suggest. To voice your opinion in favor of a practice, join us for this meeting. If you cannot attend, to submit a comment in favor of a practice, email [email protected] or fill out the survey at:
