Your Farm, Your River
Bringing landowners and conservation partners together.
Start here. We'll help you find the right people.
Friends of the North Fork works with local, state, and federal partners to improve water quality across the North Fork watershed. If you're looking for conservation assistance, funding opportunities, or technical guidance for your property, your local Soil and Water Conservation District is the best place to begin. They will help you identify programs and connect you with the resources that fit your goals.
Landowner Resources
Most conservation projects begin with your local Soil and Water Conservation District. They provide conservation planning, technical assistance, and information about funding opportunities for eligible landowners.

Need Something Else?
Not every project starts with Soil and Water, but many do. If your goals involve forestry, wildlife habitat, wetlands, stream restoration, education, or other conservation efforts, we work with a network of trusted local, state, and federal partners.
If Soil and Water isn't the right fit, we'll help you find the organization that is.
