SUMMARY:Landscape Conservation Certification Program
DESCRIPTION:Interested in practicing conservation in your own backyard? Join us for an online zoom presentation to learn about the newly developed Certification Program for Conservation Landscapes offered locally by the Knox-Lincoln Soil Water Conservation District. This program will help you implement recommended conservation practices in a systematic way\, with guidance and ideas from KLSWCD staff and one-on-one help on your property. It is also a chance to measure your progress and share ideas and practices with your neighbors\, friends and family. Residents who complete the Conservation Landscape Certification receive a certificate and document that can support other conservation work they are doing\, such as working with the NRCS or state agencies. You can post sign indicating your property is certified\, which is a great way to start conversations with others about your efforts. But it’s likely your own immediate reward will be the chance to watch birds and wildlife inhabiting your land\, feeding\, and raising young\, and seeing beautiful changes in the landscape.
