Environmental educational services to local students (through the PBC Envirothon and the Conservation
Poster Contest)
 Work with our local farmers to implement best manage- ment practices (BMPs) and assist with cost-share funding to help defray the cost of applying the practices.
 
 Provide free irrigation evaluations to nursery growers to help them conserve water.
 
 Provide irrigation evaluations to local Municipalities and HOA's. The evaluations help reduce potable water and leaching of fertilizers on urban land and help educate PBC residents on the efficient use of our water resources.
 

Learn how to create a greener tomorrow, today.

Under the direction of the district Board of Supervisors, PBSWCD strives to educate local land users, residents and businesses on ways to protect our natural resources, promote best management practices and conserve, improve and sustain the environment.

 



The District in cooperation with the South Florida Fair annually coordinates and sponsors a Conservation Poster Contest. The contest gives elementary students the opportunity to learn about their environment while showing their creativity. Hundreds of students compete for prizes ranging from $75 to $20 along with tickets to the South Florida Fair. The winning posters are displayed at the fair each January. First place winners go on to compete at the State and National competitions.
