Our History
Our History
In the early 1930s the United States experienced an unparalleled ecological disaster know as the Dust Bowl. Severe, sustained drought in the Great Plains caused soil erosion and huge dust storms.

The Boulder Valley and Longmont Conservation Districts were created out of the dust bowl era to champion locally-led natural resources conservation. Originally, the main priority of conservation districts was to protect against soil erosion and minimize the chances of another dust bowl.
