Serving Amelia, Nottoway, and Prince Edward Counties
A young attendee at the Virginia Association of Conservation Districts Annual Meeting on December 5-6 at the Roanoke Hotel in Roanoke, Virginia enjoyed assembling the puzzle part of the Piedmont SWCD’s Eduction Exhibit. The puzzle, when assembled, shows Gary Fetter’s comic strip on watersheds (see blog below for close-up of strip). “What is Your Watershed Address” was the theme of the Education Exhibit, and the Association awarded the Piedmont SWCD a gift certificate recognizing the exhibit.
The Piedmont Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) is a non-profit, political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia operating primarily on a grant basis with funds from state and local governments. Piedmont SWCD provides technical and educational assistance for natural resource conservation to land users, farmers, foresters, homeowners, and local governments in Amelia, Nottoway, and Prince Edward Counties. Since 1939, the District has delivered voluntary, locally-led conservation solutions to natural resource concerns.
