Volunteer
Our conservation work in Hancock County depends on community residents and organizations to support and contribute to it. We maintain a list of conservation-related opportunities that are organized by our partners, and, when possible, we organize events and volunteer opportunities that are specific to our soil and water projects. We invite you to join one or all of these opportunities to stay connected with conservation work in our community.

Learn about becoming a Board Supervisor or Associate Supervisor
Serve Your Community
Hancock County Soil & Water Conservation District is governed by a volunteer board of supervisors who help guide conservation priorities across the county. Board Supervisors and Associate Supervisors play a meaningful role in shaping programs, supporting local farmers and landowners, and protecting the natural resources that make this region exceptional. No technical background required — just a passion for the land and your community. Board meetings are held monthly and the time commitment is modest.
