Coös County Conservation District
The Coös County Conservation District works to conserve natural resources, support sustainable agriculture, and strengthen the resilience of our working lands and communities. We provide education, technical assistance, and resources that empower landowners, farmers, and residents to steward soil, water, forests, and wildlife for the benefit of current and future generations.
Since 1946
Who we are
The Coös County Conservation District (CCCD) works hand-in-hand with farmers, landowners, and community members to conserve and protect the natural resources of Coös County, New Hampshire. Established in 1946, we are a locally led, non-regulatory organization dedicated to supporting sustainable agriculture, forestry, and conservation practices.
Our mission is to connect people with the tools, resources, and knowledge they need to care for the land. From equipment rentals and technical assistance to conservation education and grant opportunities, we strive to make conservation practical, accessible, and beneficial for both the community and the environment.
At CCCD, we believe healthy soil, clean water, and thriving wildlife habitat are the foundation for a strong future—for our farms, forests, and families.
What we offer
Soil and water test kits are available by notice at the Coös County Conservation District to help landowners and gardeners assess the quality of their natural resources. These kits provide valuable information on soil nutrient levels, pH balance, and water quality, enabling better decision-making for crop management, landscaping, and environmental protection. To obtain a test kit, simply contact our office in advance to schedule a pickup. Taking advantage of this service supports sustainable land use and helps maintain the health of our local ecosystems.
The conservation district is not responsible or directly associated with testing, we are a provider for the kits. Cost and use is land owner responsibility
