The Manatee River Soil and Water Conservation District (MRSWCD) is a local government subdivision in Lakewood Ranch, FL, established in 1945. Working closely with the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and Manatee County Government, the MRSWCD aims to implement locally led conservation efforts, providing assistance to farmers and the public in achieving conservation goals.
With an elected board of supervisors, the MRSWCD coordinates various events and programs, including speech contests, land judging, and farm tours, while also offering access to natural resource information such as aerial maps and soil surveys. Additionally, the district develops conservation plans for agricultural land and provides information on USDA NRCS Farm Bill Programs for environmental stewardship.
