On this day in 1939, the Texas Legislature established the Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board, laying the foundation for a statewide commitment to protecting the natural resources that sustain our farms, ranches, communities, and future generations.

For 86 years, the TSSWCB has worked alongside Texas’ 216 Soil and Water Conservation Districts, landowners, producers, and conservation partners to advance voluntary, locally led conservation across the Lone Star State.

As we reflect on this milestone, we honor the visionaries who came before us and remain committed to stewarding Texas’ soil and water resources for generations to come.

I spent a beautiful morning outside at the Cooper Wildlife Management Area and learned ALOT! They have test plots, programs for landowners, bird boxes and a TON of knowledge. Watch for future collaborations with Cooper WMA and Delta SWCD!!!!

As Texas Soil & Water Stewardship Week comes to a close, we’re reminded of an important truth: Soil is where it all begins. 🌱 Healthy soil supports our native habitats, sustains agriculture, protects water resources, and strengthens the landscapes we depend on every day. When we invest in soil conservation, we’re investing in a healthier, more resilient Texas for generations to come. Thank you for joining us in celebrating !
