Who we are, what we do, and why your voice matters!
As a locally funded, educational, non-enforcement agency, Alger Conservation District is genuinely at your service. We thank you for your support as we continue delivering on our community's natural resource mission in the upcoming years.
Our mission is to provide sound natural resource management assistance to the residents of Alger County. We support the community by partnering with residents, school districts, local municipalities, and state and federal agencies. Our team delivers positive results for residents through free educational workshops, partner-funded assistance programs, and regional cooperative action to conserve and restore natural resources in Alger County.
Your participation and feedback in this process allow our team to focus on and understand the needs of our community, prioritize our actions, and create successful long-term success plans.
Thank you for your time and support!
