PA County Conservation Districts Seek Farmers In Ohio, Delaware Watersheds For Farmer Focus Groups


The
PA Association of Conservation Districts is working with Water Words That Work to offer another round of farmer focus groups throughout the Pennsylvania portion of the Delaware and Ohio Watersheds as part of CREP (PA Crop Reserve Enhancement Program) Office outreach.

Our local farmers' input is extremely valuable in helping us understand how to successfully deliver the CREP program so that it meets the needs of landowners.

All farmers who participate will receive $125 in return for their time.
