 Environmental Farm Plans

The Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) is an opportunity to assess areas of strength and potential environmental risks on a farming operation. It provides a farm with increased awareness of areas of potential environmental concern and helps outline site-specific, individualized plans to address, monitor or compensate these risks. It is voluntary and free, and it considers the farming operation. The EFP program offers all of this in an easy to use, flexible, online format.   

If you would like assistance with: 

Completing a previous EFP that has been started, OR starting a new online WebBook, please contact the County Office at 780-656-3730.
