The Mills County Conservation Board was established in January of 1957, as per
Iowa state law. The organization’s stated purpose is: “To make available to the
inhabitants of Mills County, public museums, parks, preserves, parkways,
playgrounds, recreational centers, county forests, wildlife and other
conservation areas, and to promote and preserve the health and general welfare
of the people, encourage the orderly development and conservation of natural
resources, and to cultivate good citizenship by providing adequate programs of
public recreation.”
While here you may browse the Environmental Education programs we offer for
Mills County schools and youth groups. We provide public programs which can be
found under the link for Upcoming Events. We also provide programs for various
businesses, groups and organizations within Mills County, which may be scheduled
upon request. While here you may also view current and past issues of the MCCB
newsletter, Conservation Matters.
The Mills County Conservation Board encourages you to explore over 800 acres of
unique conservation areas that are managed by the Mills County Conservation
Board. You will find a variety of outdoor activities to enjoy, from camping,
fishing and canoeing to photography, hiking, and biking. There is sure to be a
nature area to fit everyone’s interest!
Thank you for visiting!
