NH Conservation Districts

Home 9 About Us 9 NH Conservation Districts

Since 1945 and 1946, New Hampshire’s ten Conservation Districts have been dedicated to conserving and responsibly managing the state’s natural and agricultural resources. These districts play a crucial role by offering educational programs, financial support, technical assistance, and other valuable resources to farmers, landowners, and community members. Each district tailors its services to meet the specific needs of its local community.

In 2022, the districts began working together to secure funding for farmers to enhance climate resilience in their operations. Discover more about the Climate Resilience Grant.
