Tree Planting & Restoration

Interested in getting your hands dirty to help the environment or hosting conservation projects on your land? Volunteers are invaluable to the success of restoring habitats, protecting water quality, reducing erosion, and improving fish habitat. Since 1955, Lincoln Soil and Water has worked with landowners, farmers, timber producers, and rural residents to identify habitat improvement needs and carry out conservation projects on private and public lands. If you or a friend/family member/or neighbor is interested in increasing ecosystem services on their property, get in touch with our Conservation Staff today.
