The Coastal Soil and Water Conservation District serve five counties - Bryan, Chatham, Liberty, Long, and McIntosh. Established in response to the devastating impacts of the Dust Bowl era, the district is committed to promoting responsible stewardship of our natural resources.

Through leadership, education, technical assistance, and economic incentives, the district works to advance soil and water conservation across Coastal Georgia. By partnering with local communities, businesses, schools, organizations, and government agencies, the district continues to support and educate the public on the importance of environmental sustainability.

The Coastal Georgia Conservation District actively engages the community by hosting field days, workshops, and outreach events that highlight conservation practices. The district is also deeply involved in local schools, participating in Ag Days, organizing tree plantings, and providing hands-on conservation lessons to inspire the next generation of environmental stewards.

Georgia has 40 Soil and Water Conservation Districts that represent every county in the state. Conservation Districts are units of state government that direct natural resource management programs. They work with local farmers, landowners, other units of government, and students to educate and actively promote programs and practices that support the conservation, and use and development of soil, water, and related resources.
