2022 Conservationist of the Year
2021 award recipient Keith Peters and Pickaway SWCD Board President Jonathan Lohstroh presented the award to the Gifford Family.
|
The Pickaway Soil and Water Conservation District would like to offer a huge congratulations to the Gifford Family for being chosen as the Pickaway SWCD 2022 Conservationists of the Year!
The Gifford Family have been with our organization as cooperators since 1988. Since their first commitment to establish conservation methods on their farms, they have installed over 54,200 feet of sub surface drainage tile systems on different farms and almost 300 acres of the Conservation Enhancement Reserve Program of warm season grasses along the Scioto River. Other various methods of conservation include installing filter strips, planting cover crops and implementing a Nutrient Management Plan. One of the family members has also worked with our office on the construction of waterways as a contractor. Our office has enjoyed working with the Gifford Family for the past several years, and we are excited to continue working with them to conserve our natural resources here in Pickaway County. |
