The West Greeley Conservation District offers a program for seeding grass species in pastures, small acreages and other locations to aid in water retention, prevent soil erosion and provide wildlife habitat. At this time we are already booked for Fall 2018 and booking out into Spring 2019. If you are interested in having us plant your property that is less than 15 acres, please give us a call or email to get on the waiting list.
Please contact the district office at (970) 534-2319 or liz.schneider@wgcd.org for more information.
The landowner provides the seed, and we charge $80 per hour for in-District folks and $160 per hour for out-of-District landowners.
