Conservation Planning

Marin RCD offers guidance in soil health, monitoring, and the co-creation of planning documents.

Marin RCD staff perform baseline monitoring for carbon farm planning.

Plan Types Include (but are not limited to):

  • Carbon Farm Plans 
  • Grazing Management Plans
  • Soil Health Management Plans
  • Habitat Management Plans

Typically, the planning process includes site visits, resource assessments, regular communication with MRCD staff, and collaboration with relevant partners to tailor plans to the landowner/land manager's goals and context and facilitate a smoother process for implementation of planned practices.

Conservation plans can take anywhere from several months up to 2 years to develop, in collaboration with a comprehensive planning team led by MRCD staff.
