Since 1964, the Kodiak Soil and Water Conservation District (KSWCD) has facilitated natural resource conservation through community involvement, education, technical expertise and scientific research. KSWCD is committed to utilizing voluntary, cooperative, and scientifically-sound methods to ensure that the natural resources of the Kodiak Archipelago are sustained, conserved, and restored within a landscape of productive agriculture, growing communities, and wildlands.
The mission of KSWCD is to provide education and leadership by coordinating and implementing programs for the conservation, use and sustainable development of soil, water and related resources.
KSWCD is a member district of the Alaska Association of Conservation Districts.
