MIDDLE SOUTH GEORGIA CONSERVATION DISTRICT
Middle South Georgia Conservation District is one of 40 conservation districts in the state of GA. Our district was created in 1945 in the aftermath of the Dust Bowl and encompasses nine counties in southwest Georgia.
As a legal subdivision of the state of Georgia, the District bridges the gap between federal and state resource management agencies and the local people; this allows decisions about natural resource issues and conservation problems to be made at a local level, with technical and financial assistance provided by the government. Middle South Georgia Conservation District comprises Ben Hill, Brooks, Colquitt, Crisp, Irwin, Thomas, Tift, Turner, and Worth Counties
