Operations
The OFSWCD is here to serve the 88 Soil and Water Conservation Districts. We provide a variety of resources. A few are listed below, but please do not hesitate to contact us with any specific requests as we may be able to assist! We enjoy working with the dedicated staff around the state and are here to partner with you to communicate the message of conservation.
If you are a new staff person with a district, please contact Nicole to ensure you are on the proper email lists. nicole@ofswcd.org
Also, make sure you make plans to attend the Annual Partnership meetings, Summer Supervisor School and other networking and training opportunities provided. These meetings are a great way to learn what other districts around the state are doing, network and learn. See the Events page for more information.
