The Douglas County Voluntary Stewardship Program (VSP) is seeking new members for its eight-member work group. This county-based public committee provides guidance and input for the direction and priorities of voluntary stewardship activities in Douglas County. We are looking for community members, especially those who are actively farming, to represent local agricultural interests.

VSP reduces the regulatory burden on the Douglas County agricultural community by protecting critical areas through voluntary conservation activities. The goal of VSP is to create a balanced approach to protect critical areas while maintaining agricultural viability in our county. Serving on the work group entails a willingness to collaborate with other stakeholders to provide guidance for a range of VSP implementation activities to ensure the success of this program.

If you have questions, please contact Rebecca Schexnayder, Douglas Co. VSP Coordinator, at rschexnayder@fostercreekcd.org or (509) 888-6375.

Applications are to be submitted to the Douglas County Clerk of the Board, Tiana Rowland via email at trowland@co.douglas.wa.us or by mail at PO Box 747 Waterville, WA 98858-0747 by 5pm on January 28, 2022.
