The Knox Soil & Water Conservation District offers many environmental related programs available for educational purposes for grades K-12, while striving to teach our youth about the importance and value of our soil and water resources.  Pictured here is some students from the Mount Vernon City Schools who are learning about the impact water quality has on the various macroinvertebrate found in the streams.   This is one program the SWCD offers to classrooms in the spring.

The links to the left is a list of programs and resources which are offered through the district's environmental education program.  For further information on any of these educational programs please contact Amy Seward at the Knox Soil & Water Conservation Office.
