About Crossroads RC&D
Our Mission... Crossroads Resource Conservation and Development Council is a connector of people and resources for our communities.
Our Vision... Economic and Environmental sustainability through conservation and effective utilization of the area’s resources.
Project Accomplishments are as diverse as the projects that Crossroads RC&D adopts. Crossroads provides technical assistance to projects related to the environment such as water quality planning and implementation. Crossroads has always focused on rural resources related to businesses. Some examples are projects that: determined the feasibility of marketing firewood, formed Christmas tree cooperatives, and published a tourist brochure on local wood products.
Historical resources can be very important to local economies. Crossroads has helped restore a school house, a stagecoach inn, a historic bridge, and helped develop the Custer memorial. Improvements of rural services are also important projects. Infrastructure projects such as timber bridges, dry fire hydrants, and fixing road slips help rural areas.
Education efforts have also been part of Crossroads accomplishing our mission. Projects such as Food Land and People and our Gypsy Moth outreach help equip citizens with the knowledge to make informed management decisions
