Nominations Invited For Statewide Clean Water Farm Award
The Pennsylvania Chesapeake Bay Education Office is seeking nominations for its Clean Water Farm Award Program administered by the PA Association of Conservation Districts. Nominations are due April 30.
The award program, that previously was limited to farms in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, has been expanded this year to include the entire state.
The Clean Water Farm Award Program recognizes Pennsylvania farmers whose exemplary farm management practices result in improved local and downstream water quality. Pennsylvania's Conservation Districts may submit a nomination for a farm in their county. One award will be given in each of PACD’s six regions.
Clean Water Farm Award winners will be recognized in July during the PACD Conservation Awards Program. Clean Water Farm Award Program winners will receive a certificate of recognition signed by the secretaries of the Departments of Agriculture and Environmental Protection. Winners will also receive a Clean Water Farm Award sign to post on their property.
For more information and a nomination form, visit the PA Clean Water Farm Award webpage.
