Faribault County Soil and Water Conservation District Our partnerships
Our SWCD works closely with various organizations and agencies to meet the conservation needs of local landowners.

Since 1963, the Faribault County Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) has served the community by coordinating technical and financial assistance to local landowners. Our primary partners include the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), Farm Service Agency (FSA), Faribault County, and the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR). Together, we are able to leverage local

, state and federal resources to put conservation practices on the landscape. Education is key to our programs. Our assistance
Many of the private landowners who invest their own money in conservation practices appreciate being able to put a face to the people helping them care for the land and water. The SWCD office is the place to ask questions about all phases of conservation, from improving water quality to establishing wildlife habitat.
