Tidewater Soil and Water Conservation District is excited to announce our annual Virginia Agricultural Cost-Share Program (VACS) Sign-up period is July 29th – August 29th, 2024.

Tidewater SWCD can help to fund conservation practices like nutrient management, cover crop planting, erosion stabilization, exclusion fencing, watering systems, and much more. Appointments are required to sign-up, no walk-ins accepted. For more information or to schedule your appointment call (804) 699-3482 or stop by our office in Gloucester.
