December in the Grand Valley is a time of rest, reflection, and looking ahead.
As winter settles in, fields grow quiet and producers turn their focus from daily fieldwork to planning for the year to come. This season offers an opportunity to evaluate the past growing year, prepare equipment, and consider conservation practices that protect soil health, conserve water, and build long-term resilience during the colder months.
At Mesa Conservation District, we remain committed to supporting our agricultural community through every season. As the year comes to a close, we’re grateful for the producers who steward the land with care and foresight. December invites us to reflect on the progress made, appreciate the partnerships built, and look ahead with optimism toward a productive and sustainable year ahead..

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.”
