Conservation cost share applications to be taken through Friday, May 9

The Wayne County Conservation District is currently accepting applications for our Local Cost Share program.  Deadline to apply is 4:30 on Friday, May 9th.  Applications can be picked up at our office (838 North Main Street).

Conservation practices covered by this cost share funding will consist of Livestock tanks & pipeline, heavy use feeding areas, fencing, and hay and pasture renovation.  

New this year – we will also be offering cost-share for 3 backyard conservation projects – raised bed gardens, wildlife food plots, and pollinator planting.  These are covered by a separate application.

All funding is based on a 50% match, with limits based on practice.  If you have any questions, contact our office at 606-348-9385.
