Who are we? The MCSWCD is a municipal subdivision that partners with other agencies and organizations to educate and assist land stewards in planning and implementing comprehensive management practices that stabilize soil, improve water quality, manage stormwater, preserve open space and/or manage fish and wildlife habitat. The District promotes the preservation of: wetlands, woodlots, agricultural land, and low-impact development. We provide services to partners, landowners, developers, farmers, engineers, government and non-government agencies.

Programs and services offered through the MCSWCD are made possible through the financial support of the USDA NRCS, County of Monroe, State of New York, specialized grant opportunities, and fundraising programs. All NRCS & SWCD programs and services are offered on a nondiscriminatory basis without regard to race, color, national origin, political beliefs, religion, sex, age, marital status, sexual orientation, or disability. Should you need reasonable disability-related accommodations they may be requested by contacting the MCSWCD.
