The West Virginia Soil Trailer serves as a soil, water and agriculture specialty crops mobile learning center. Stationed at the Capitol Conservation District in Kanawha County, the WV Soil Trailer is available to service all of West Virginia.

The 100% ADA compliant unit has sculpted interior walls that depict a true underground world. The trailer showcases soil dwelling creatures, microorganisms, aquatic life and the roots that keep our grasses and trees fed as well as our food growing!

Soil is not just dirt, and water is not to be taken for granted. Both soil and water are alive and so important to our everyday life.

The Soil Trailer is available to rent through the Capitol Conservation District. Please contact Aimee Figgatt, District Manager at 304.759.0736 or email at ccd@wvca.us for more information.

The Agricultural Enhancement Program (AgEp) supports West Virginia’s agriculture community through implementation of cost-share practices to reduce soil erosion, and improving the productivity of agriculture lands. The program is administered by the 14 West Virginia Conservation Districts with assistance from the West Virginia Conservation Agency. Supported practices are determined by the Conservation District to address local resource concerns.

• Through the program, financial and technical assistance are offered as incentives to implement best management practices.
• Applications are reviewed once monthly during the regularly scheduled board meeting.
• Applications are approved based on ranking criteria and availability of funding.
• Practices must not be initiated until board approval.
• ALL practices MUST be completed and receipts turned into CCD District Manager by June 1, 2017 for reimbursement. There are no extensions on this date.
• Please call the Capitol Conservation District office at 304.759.0736 with any questions.
• Applications may be scanned and emailed, but an original copy of the application must be brought or mailed to the district office at the address listed on our home page.
