Headwaters Farm is a 60-acre property in the town of Orient that is owned and managed by the EMSWCD. It is the site of the District's exciting new incubator program which seeks to aid the development of new farm businesses by providing affordable access to land and farm resources.
The site also contains roughly 15-acres of the North Fork of Johnson Creek, which has been put into our StreamCare program to conserve and improve soil and water quality. Headwaters Farm will also serve as a site for research and demonstration of agricultural conservation practices and stewardship.
