Another Thursday closer to Thanksgiving, another conservation highlight! EOF practices are innovative ways to treat tile drained water. Often times, EOF practices required little to no land to be taken out of production- that's something to be thankful for!

Thanksgiving is officially one week away! Now it is time to give thanks to the people who help facilitate the conservation programs the LSR relies on. The folks in these field offices help sign you up for cost-share, design structural practices, make conservation plans, are more!

2023 is almost here! 🎉 Set a good example a become a conservation leader this new year. Inspire others when they look at your fields and see thriving soil health and positive water quality impacts. 🌱💧 The LSR WQI can help you achieve your 2023 conservation goals! 🦨
