The Allen Soil and Water Conservation District provides technical, financial and education resources to meet the needs of local land users for conservation of our soil, water, farmland, woodland, wildlife, and urban areas. We strive to inspire lifelong stewardship of our natural resources and a healthier environment.

We do this through educational programs for both adults and children; outreach to farmers, industries, municipalities and home owners; informational workshops; and programs that protect our soil, water and woodlands.

Are you asking yourself what you can do to get involved? There are many ways that you can help our environment: from simple things such as picking up litter and cleaning up after your pets, to volunteering for the Allen Soil and Water Conservation District’s many programs, to helping with the Ottawa River Cleanup, to encouraging your business to adopt best management practices that protect our resources.
