Facing challenges with soil erosion and degraded plant conditions, a local livestock owner in Pomeroy Conservation District was struggling to feed, water, and care for their cattle during the winter months.
Pomeroy CD stepped in to help develop infrastructure at a prime location, utilizing an existing water source while staying clear of Lower Deadman Creek. This project will create a localized feedlot, allowing for better cattle management, reduced soil erosion, and improved plant health.
Jefferson County CD partnered with Spring Rain Farm to install multistory riparian buffers that protect wetlands while keeping the farm productive. It’s a working example of how restoration and agriculture can thrive together.
A short video from Pacific Conservation Districts shares how no-till farming is helping a local grower improve soil health, reduce costs, and protect water quality.
