Building on our agricultural roots, conservation districts work in partner with the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) to serve farmers and landowners across Connecticut in many ways. We work to:

• Assist municipalities and private groups to preserve open space by providing information, education and technical advice.
• Promote sound agricultural practices to prevent erosion of fragile soil resources and pollution of precious water resources.
• Advise farmers and help them find funding for building manure management and other structures.
