Are you ready to transform your small acreage project into a thriving, resilient space? Palouse Conservation District has three types of seed mixtures available for your project, while supplies last:
The Plow-Down Cover Crop Mix is a blend of green manure crops to enhance your garden soil. These crops can increase organic matter and nutrient availability in the soil, improve soil moisture holding capacity, prevent excessive weed growth, and reduce risk of erosion.
The Dryland Pasture Mix is a blend of grasses that work well for pasture or hay crops. These grasses thrive in the northwest climate and are effective in weed and erosion control.
The Inland Northwest Native Mix is a blend of grasses perfect for use in restoration of native areas. They are drought-tolerant and resilient once they are fully grown. They are effective in soil stabilization, improved water filtration, and groundwater storage.
To be eligible, your project must be located in Whitman County. Priority will be given to projects located within the Palouse CD boundary that are smaller than ten acres. Not sure if you’re in our boundary? Input your address here to see which Whitman County conservation district serves you!
