We’re excited to host the 19th Annual Eastern Oklahoma Ag Trade Show on April 15th at the LeFlore County Fairgrounds.

This year’s program includes updates from USDA and the Conservation District, along with timely topics for producers such as poultry mortality management, GPS guidance systems, and updates on New World screwworm and Asian longhorn tick.

Poultry CEU credits will be offered, and lunch is provided thanks to our sponsors. There will also be vendor booths set up throughout the day.

Registration begins at 8:30 a.m., and the program will wrap up at 2:00 p.m.

We hope to see you there.

Have you ever wondered how the first conservation district came to be? We owe it all to Hugh Hammond Bennett!🌱

In 1937, the first soil conservation district in the United States was established in Brown Creek, North Carolina — Bennett’s hometown. As a child, he discovered the value of soil protection by helping his father build terraces on their family farm.

Following the Dust Bowl, Bennett championed a new approach: local conservation districts managed by those who understand the land best. Brown Creek farmers voted to form the first district, setting an example for others nationwide.

Now, over 3,000 conservation districts across the country help communities protect soil, water, forests, and wildlife. Bennett saw these districts as powerful tools for conserving natural resources—a belief that remains true nearly 90 years later. 🌎

Despite the current federal government shutdown, all Oklahoma Conservation Districts will continue to operate and provide assistance as usual.

During this time, some districts housed in federally owned buildings may need to use alternate phone numbers and relocate temporarily.

These temporary locations will be open to the public and staffed by local conservation district personnel. You can visit your local district office to view posted signs with updated contact information.

If you need help contacting your local district, we are happy to assist. Please email [email protected] for assistance.
