Annual Landowner and Local Work Group Meeting
What is a Landowner Meeting?
Mesa Conservation District’s Landowner Meeting is a time to celebrate our accomplishments and share the many conservation projects and successes achieved throughout the year. It’s also an opportunity to report back on the priorities identified during last year’s Local Work Group meeting and to outline the actions taken in response. Most importantly, the meeting provides a space for community members to share their ideas, insights, and concerns about local conservation efforts.
Held each year in early spring, this Landowner Meeting is open to everyone in our community—your participation helps shape the future of conservation in our district.
What is a Local Work Group?
Local Work Groups (LWG) make the connection between Conservation Districts, NRCS, State, local partners, and producers to assess current natural resource concerns and to identify opportunities and challenges that NRCS and partners can address through their conservation programs. This input helps guide local decision-making and can influence state, regional, and national program and policy development.
In accordance with 7 CFR Part 610, Subpart C, Local Work Groups are subcommittees of the State Technical Committee and provide recommendations to USDA on local and state natural resource priorities.
