The Finney County Conservation District is a local government agency that is supported with both state and local tax dollars. In the state of Kansas there are 105 districts; one in each county. The district's governing board is comprised of five elected local citizens known as supervisors. They establish local priorities, set policy, and administer non-regulatory conservation programs during monthly board meetings. The supervisors, although serving as public officials, do not draw a salary. Conservation district staff are hired by the supervisors to provide day-to-day coordination of district activities. The Finney County Conservation District has been serving the natural resource needs of Finney County since May 27, 1946.

Our function is to take available technical, financial and educational resources, whatever their source, and target them so they meet the needs of the local land user for conservation of soil, water and related resources.
