Our mission is to support leadership, expertise, funding, and education that bring together the diverse interests in our watershed to enhance, protect and conserve our priceless natural resources toward a vibrant, abundant future for our entire community.
November in the Grand Valley is a season of gratitude, transition, and thoughtful planning.
With the harvest season coming to a close, cooler days signal a shift from fieldwork to reflection and preparation. Producers are finishing up fall tasks, monitoring cover crops, and taking steps to protect and rebuild soil health through the winter months. The last hues of autumn mark the culmination of a year’s effort and the anticipation of what lies ahead.
At Mesa Conservation District, we’re honored to support our agricultural community as they plan for resilient operations, invest in soil and water stewardship, and carry conservation practices into the next season. This month, we reflect with gratitude on the land and for the dedicated producers who care for it today and for the generations that will follow.

Working for you and with you
Since 1937, Colorado’s 77 Conservation Districts have represented private landowner’s interests in conservation planning and practices. We can access a wide variety of funding sources to facilitate local conservation programs that improve soil health, water quantity and quality, clean air and energy efficiency.
“I consider the soil conservation districts movement one of the most important developments in the whole history of agriculture.”
