USDA officials from the local area will share the agencies’ programs and opportunities for small farmers and will answer your questions concerning eligibility and participation. The Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) will have the local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) staff on hand to explain their programs as well.
