Description

About the In-Person Conference

Join us for the ACAP Ag Conservation Con, a professional development conference designed for individuals working in agricultural conservation. Ideal for conservation district employees, agricultural conservation professionals, and those involved in ACAP or other conservation financial assistance programs, this event offers opportunities to enhance skills, expand knowledge, and strengthen the agricultural conservation workforce. While the conference is supported by Pennsylvania ACAP and highlights its initiatives, it is open to all conservation professionals, partners, and students dedicated to advancing conservation practices, fostering collaboration, and promoting economical and sustainable agriculture. Agricultural conservation success in Pennsylvania is a community-driven effort, and this conference provides a space for learning, networking, and growth. This conference is supported by the Ag Conservation Assistance Program (ACAP), which is administered by the PA State Conservation Commission.

Space is limited. Preregistration is required.
