What is VSP?
The Spokane Conservation District is proud to announce the Voluntary Stewardship Program (VSP). It's an alternative approach to protect the viability of agriculture and balanced protection of critical areas in Spokane County.
We are recently formed a work group to develop the Spokane County VSP. The goal is to have a local, collaborative group of stakeholders that represent multiple industries. They will work to create a watershed-based, collaborative stewardship planning process that uses voluntary, incentive based practices.
More information about VSP can be found online from the Washington State Conservation Commission.
