Soil & Water Conservation District
The Vanderburgh County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) collaborates with various local organizations, including the Four Rivers Resource Conservation and Development Council and The Nature Conservancy, to promote conservation efforts and educate the community. Recently, they acquired 127 acres of land, named Eagle Slough Natural Area, which serves as a resource for educational programs and community engagement with nature.
This initiative includes volunteer cleanup efforts that have removed twelve tons of debris and the installation of amenities such as a photo blind and a new observation deck, supported by grants from local businesses like Alcoa and Toyota. The area has also been recognized through a documentary highlighting the importance of bottomland forests and wetlands, featuring contributions from local students.
