As Warren County continues to grow, we’re working to find the right balance between development and preserving the farmland that feeds our community.

Come discuss these topics with us:
1. How is growth making it harder to farm today?
2. Where are you seeing development pressure?
3. What farmland should be protected?
4. Where does growth make sense?

This is your opportunity to help guide the future of agriculture in our county.

What if you were told that you could save money and do less work yet make your property better for wildlife?!? It is possible. All you have to do is to stay off the mower during the spring and summer months.

The instinct to keep land looking “clean” runs deep, but in the wildlife world, a mowing pass from March to August can undo a full year of habitat investment in an afternoon. Whitetail does will drop most of their fawns in late May and throughout June in Kentucky. Fawns lie almost motionless in tall grass/weeds for their first weeks of life. Ground-nesting birds, such as bobwhite quail, turkeys, meadowlarks, etc. are actively nesting from April though July. Wildflowers are blooming all summer long and providing a necessary food source for our native pollinators.

A single day pulling the bush hog can take all of these things away. Avoid rising fuel costs and put your free time to better use! Reach out to your Private Lands Biologist to see what other things you can do to help the wildlife in your area.

🌱 Bowling Green Work Unit Local Working Group Meeting 🌱

Join us for an important opportunity to help shape conservation efforts in your community! The NRCS Bowling Green Work Unit Local Working Group Meeting brings together farmers, landowners, and community partners to discuss natural resource concerns and priorities across the region.

This is your chance to provide input on local conservation needs and help guide how programs and funding are delivered through the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Your voice plays a key role in ensuring resources are directed where they matter most.

Whether you're actively involved in agriculture or simply care about conservation in your area, we encourage you to attend and be part of the conversation.
