The Northern Neck Soil & Water Conservation District offers technical assistance, as well as financial assistance and state tax credit for a variety of best management practices through the Virginia
Agricultural Cost Share Program. To learn more about this program, register for our 2026 Producer Conference on March 5th. This event is free and open to all agricultural producers in the Northern Neck.

The program offers more than 50 conservation practices that cover the full spectrum of agricultural operations.

Our cost share program is typically available for signup July through August.
