Conservation: Our Purpose. Our Passion
The purpose and passion for Florida's conservation is shared among many. It
is shared between NRCS employees and partners who help people help the land. And
it is shared by the landowners with
whom we work. Our passion is manifested through the benefits derived from
stewardship of private lands—benefits we all enjoy, such as cleaner water and
air, improved soils and abundant wildlife habitat.
Learn about our stories, the stories of conservation made possible through a
shared purpose, a shared passion and a shared commitment to conservation.
 Meet
Florida's Featured Customers!
Eight featured customers from all over the country were chosen to represent
diversity of geography, culture, conservation practices and crops of our
landowner-partners nationwide. Florida's Gwinn Brothers were one of the eight
national customers chosen.
The Gwinn Brothers are Suwannee County farmers that practice what NRCS promotes
- good conservation! By following the NRCS developed conservation plan for their
1137 acre farm, the Gwinn Brothers have been able to improve water quality,
enhance water quantity, reduce soil erosion, improve animal and plant health,
and enhance wildlife habitat on their farm. Read
their story.
