Conservation Landscape Certification

Earn a free sign and certificate as a certified Conservationist! Waldo SWCD is partnering with Knox-Lincoln SWCD on a Certification Program for Conservation Landscapes. This certification program will help landowners implement conservation practices in a systematic way, with guidance and ideas from our staff and one-on-one help on your property. (One visit is complimentary per landowner with additional visits at the standard rate.) It is also a chance to measure your progress and share ideas and practices with your neighbors, friends and family.

Residents who complete the Conservation Landscape Certification:

· Receive a certificate and document that can support other conservation work, such as working with NRCS or state agencies.

· Can post our sign indicating your property is certified, which is a great way to start conversations with others about your efforts.

· Will be recognized in our Annual Report and at our Annual Awards Banquet.

But it’s likely your own immediate reward will be the chance to watch birds and wildlife inhabiting your land, feeding, and raising young, and seeing beautiful changes in the landscape.

 Coming soon (April 2022): our updated checklists for small mixed use, residential and woodland properties as fillable pdfs will be posted here. Contact Us if interested in this program today!
