About Gogebic Conservation District

Gogebic Conservation District is one of Michigan's 78 Conservation Districts.  We are providers of natural resource management services and information.  Our goal is simple: To help local citizens manage their lands and preserve our environment for a clean, healthier, economically stronger Michigan.

History

Conservation Districts were formed during the dust bowl years.  At one time we were referred to as The Soil Conservation District.  That has since changed to reflect our total environmental conservation goals.

Our Mission

Mission:  To encourage the wise use of our natural resources through promotion and education.

Vision:  We will protect, conserve and encourage the use of our natural resources in a responsible manner.
