Did you know that Cass County SWCD has a growing reference library of field guides and books to help identify plants, animals, rocks, etc? We use the apps and the Internet to look up things, but often use the books to verify. We also don't hesitate to tap into our network of experts! Meanwhile, here's a great set of pointers about how to get good mileage from the apps: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1PA6ALCnnL/

Hello! Here's an invitation to fill out our Local Resources Survey for our Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) partners. Why take a few minutes to do this? The information gathered helps guide future conservation funding and technical assistance in our County.
This survey is for Cass County farmers, landowners, community leaders, and interested residents who want to help shape our local resource conservation. Categories discussed and ranked include soil health, water quality, wildlife habitat, forestry, and agricultural sustainability.

We have paper forms you can fill out at the SWCD at 500 High Street, you can email us to request one emailed or mailed to you (send an email to [email protected]), and here’s an on-line version of the form:

https://forms.gle/5woWAPH5qUGWQumL9

We'll also circulate the form at the September 15 Cass County SWCD Business meeting.

Thank you to those of you on this list who have already filled out the survey! And thank you in advance to those of you who will take the time over the next few days.
