Eastern Rhode Island Conservation District

Our Vision
To promote and improve long-lasting and environmentally-friendly practices that protect natural resources such as soil, water, and air.

Our Mission
To meet our vision through outreach, education, help with environmental questions, and financial assistance. We work with a variety of people and groups including farmers, landowners, cities, towns, schools, and others in the community.

The ERICD is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, consisting of five voting directors and several associate directors. These local individuals provide administrative guidance and focus on the actions of the Eastern District, which include the Newport and Bristol Counties.
