REMINDER: ERICD Local Working Group THIS WEDNESDAY!!

Calling all Rhode Island farmers and landowners!

Eastern Rhode Island Conservation District (ERICD) will be hosting the Local Work Group Meeting for Bristol and Newport Counties on February 12th, 2025 at 5:30pm at Greenvale Vineyards in Portsmouth RI.

Local Work Group Meetings are a valuable part of the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS) planning process, providing an opportunity for local land managers to be part of a collaborative effort to improve natural resources within your county.

This meeting is free and open to the public. Please RSVP at ERICD Local Working Group EventBrite . There is a virtual option for this meeting, please use the link here. We want to see you there and hear from you on how we can continue to improve the programs we help facilitate through the NRCS. Come and be the voice for your community so that we can continue to be the voice for you with our partners at the USDA’s NRCS.

You are invited to:

  • Review performance of the past year’s projects
  • Help shape plans and priorities for future projects
  • Connect with partners and new audiences to seek opportunities to leverage partnership funds
  • And learn about other NRCS programs which may prove beneficial to you

Please email Ally Cuomo at [email protected] with any questions.
