The Schoharie County Soil and Water Conservation District will soon be entering into agreements with the Villages of Schoharie and Middleburgh and the Town of Schoharie to bring much needed flood relief money to the areas hardest hit by hurricane Irene. These funds will be used to mitigate flood damages and help prevent further problems. Unique to these projects is the fact that LOCAL community members recommended the projects, and the LOCAL Conservation District will oversee the projects.
The Soil and Water Conservation District is the agency that is responsible for updating the Soil Group Worksheets that are necessary for farm's tax exemptions. Typically these are completed between January and March. If you have received a notice from your assessor that your property needs updating, now is the time to stop in and give us a call at 518-823-4535
For over 30 years the Schoharie County Soil and Water Conservation District have made low-cost trees and shrubs available to county landowners. Check out our new website complete with easy to print order form, written descriptions, and beautiful photos of all of the items available.
