About Mendocino County Resource Conservation District

Our Mission Our mission is to conserve, protect, and restore wild and working landscapes to enhance the health of the water, soil, and forests in Mendocino County. Who We Are The Mendocino County Resource Conservation District (MCRCD) is a non-regulatory, public agency providing conservation leadership for voluntary stewardship of natural resources on public and private lands. We work with communities to protect and restore natural resources in a landscape that supports agriculture, urban areas, and wild lands. What We Do MCRCD works with communities to voluntarily conserve, protect, and restore natural resources in a landscape that supports agriculture, timberland, wild lands, and urban areas. We provide technical assistance, educational programs, monitoring and assessment services to landowners, and secure millions of dollars in grant funding to help meet local and regional conservation goals. The District serves as a clearinghouse of information on natural resources conservation, technical guidance, permitting, and financial assistance programs for landowners interested in implementing conservation practices or habitat enhancement. MCRCD uses a watershed approach in addressing natural resource issues, collaborating closely with federal, state, county, and other local resource agencies and organizations. The District also works closely with industry associations, community groups, businesses, schools, and the general public. 100% of our annual funding comes from local, state and federal grant programs, professional service agreements, and tax-deductible donations.
