Farmers Leading Our United Revolution in Soil Health (FLOURISH) is a multi-state collaboration funded by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service’s Conservation Innovation Grants program. Working alongside conservation districts, universities, and regional partners, Palouse CD supports producers in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon who are experimenting with practices such as cover cropping, interseeding, livestock integration, and green fallow systems. FLOURISH emphasizes peer learning, farmers share experiences through field days, videos, and a podcast series that highlight real on-farm results and lessons learned. Together, these efforts are building a connected network of producers committed to improving soil health and long-term agricultural resilience across the Inland Northwest.
Learn more and explore videos, podcasts, and additional resources on the FLOURISH website, and follow along on Facebook for updates.
In an arid landscape dominated by dryland grain production and rangeland, this pilot focuses on reducing soil loss, improving water availability, and supporting habitat health. By tracking conservation practices and applying watershed tools, the work helps partners better understand how voluntary conservation supports resilient working lands under changing conditions.
In a working lands landscape shaped by dryland farming, grazing, and irrigated agriculture, this pilot focuses on reducing erosion, keeping soil on the land, and improving stream and habitat conditions. By tracking conservation practices and applying watershed tools, the work helps partners better understand how voluntary conservation supports resilient farms and healthy watersheds.
Within a productive agricultural landscape shaped by dairy and crop production, this pilot focuses on improving water quality, managing nutrients, and reducing flood risks. Monitoring and conservation tracking help partners understand how voluntary conservation supports both farm viability and long-term watershed health.
