Ag Notes Week of 7/5/2021
Junior Conservationist Program
The Northwest Ohio Soil & Water Conservation Districts are offering a free, at-home “Do-It-Yourself” Junior Conservationist summer program.
The junior conservationists in training will learn about soil, water, plants, animals, community and nature exploration by completing a required number of activities in each category and submitting photos of doing the activities or photos of the completed projects by Wednesday, Aug. 25.
Upon completion of the activities, participants will receive a certificate. T-shirts are available for $10 (unless sponsored by participant’s local SWCD). The Wood Soil and Water Conservation District is offering a t-shirt free of charge for those who complete the program in Wood County.
Those who don’t wish to register to receive a t-shirt and certificate may still enjoy the activities on their own. Visit
lucasswcd.org/jrcc.html for more information and to register online.
