Dixie Soil & Water Conservation District

The creation of Florida Districts was authorized by the Soil & Water Conservation Law, Chapter 582, Florida statutes, enacted in 1937. There are a total of 63 Districts in Florida. SWCD's form partnerships with Federal, State and Local Governments, and private organizations to help carry out a variety of conservation, environmental and educational programs, as well as provide technical assistance and other services to help land users protect our natural resources.
