Mission Statement

The District is a locally elected nonpartisan entity of state government, whose purpose is to promote wise land use decisions, based upon the capability of the natural resources of Jackson County, through technical assistance and education.

History

     Established in 1948, Jackson County Conservation District is a locally controlled agency of State government operating under Soil Conservation District Law 297- - - P.A. 1937 as amended. Created by concerned landowners and administered by an elected board of five directors. County residents vote in an annual election to fill any expired four-year term.

 

     The Conservation District works for you and the community to achieve natural resource management for improved water quality, reduced soil erosion, farmland preservation, wetland preservation, wildlife habitat, clean air, energy conservation, and land beautification.

 

     With direct technical assistance or referrals to other experts, we are your gateway to conservation. Resource professionals are available to assist you with your conservation needs. Contact our office for more information.
