What is a Conservation District?

Conservation Districts are locally organized self-governing bodies chartered by the State. Through voluntary action and cooperation of landowners (and other stake holders), the District works to conserve land, water, forest, wildlife and other related resources for the benefit of all.

Mission: To promote conservation of natural resources through local leadership, education and technical assistance.

The Licking County SWCD Board meets at 7:00 p.m. on the 2nd Monday of each month at the Agricultural Service Center, 771 East Main Street, Newark. The public is welcome.
