Announcements and Upcoming Events
Happy New Year from the Clare Conservation District!
With a new year and new decade upon us, we have the unique opportunity to take a fresh look at our lives. This includes our natural resource management in Clare County.
If you are a farmer, rancher, or forest landowner, I would encourage you to spend time during the new year learning about the Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP). This program is designed to help farms of all sizes and commodities, as well as timber owners, evaluate their environmental risk and remain in compliance with Michigan’s Right to Farm and Right to Forest Acts.
MAEAP is a great tool that can help improve the long-term management of your operation while reducing hazards to the local environment. The program is FREE, voluntary, and guaranteed by state law. Benefits include access to cost-share funding, recognition by the State of Michigan as a top steward of the land, and regulatory protections for your property.
To get more information about MAEAP or to talk with your local technician, contact Alex Svoboda at 231-465-8005 or alex.svoboda@macd.org.
