NRCS staff are dedicated to natural resource conservation. They live and work in the communities they service,  providing technical expertise and financial assistance to Colorado's farmers, ranchers, forest land-owners, and other land stewards. NRCS employees help people help the land.

Colorado NRCS is led by Clint Evans, State Conservationist and the NRCS State Leadership Team. 

The NRCS provides service in every county across Colorado. The Agency is committed to helping private landowners care and make healthy choices for the land and water, while using them productively. Through voluntary incentive-based programs, NRCS works directly with farmers, ranchers, forest owners and other land stewards to provide technical expertise and financial assistance to make conservation work on private lands.
