The Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District was established on February 4, 1965 by the Board of Supervisors. Hamilton County is the third largest in New York State and the least populated. The county is a tapestry of forests, water bodies, open areas, and hamlets. Governed locally by a board of directors, our team gets conservation on the ground through diversified projects and services that focus on watershed quality, sediment and erosion control, invasive species, and education.

All programs of the Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District are offered on a nondiscriminatory basis without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political belief, sexual orientation, or marital or family status.
