Walker County Conservation District

Walker County Conservation District “Working to conserve our natural resources so future generations can enjoy the same Walker County and Alabama the Beautiful we know and love.”

“For nearly 80 years, Walker County Conservation District has committed to conserving Walker County’s natural resources by connecting those who use and work the land to the education, technical know-how, and resources they need. This stewardship revived the landscape from the devastation of the 1930s and continues to improve quality of life for
all Alabama citizens. The Walker County Conservation

District is part of a statewide movement in the conservation of Alabama’s natural resources: Conserve Alabama. Conserve Alabama is an initiative of the State of Alabama Soil & Water Conservation Committee to reenergize and unite stakeholders in the effort to be good stewards of our land and water. With a growing population and increased demand of resources in the 21st Century, it's
more important than ever that we use our resources wisely. Join us to Conserve Alabama!”

What can you plant in the garden in August? More than you might think!
As summer crops begin to wind down, it is time to start preparing for fall gardening. Beans, broccoli, cabbage, collards, kale, lettuce, radishes, turnips, and other vegetables can still be planted, depending on your location in Alabama. Your lawn and landscape also need attention this month, especially when it comes to watering and monitoring for insects and diseases.

**Late Post** In June, the AACD Standing Committee on Forestry and Wildlife held its annual Summer Workshop in beautiful Heflin, AL. It was a two-day event. In the classroom session, attendees heard about topics ranging from black bears and privet control to drone spraying. For the field tour, we got to tour Penny Creek Farms. The Executive Committee would like to thank the Cleburne County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Cleburne County Forestry Commission for working so hard to make this workshop a success.
