Cost of Signs
Our grant funding makes Signs of Conservation available in Franklin County with no charge to the farmer.
A $5-10 donation per sign helps us keep this program going once grant funds are spent.
Orders outside the county will be asked to cover at least $5 per sign, or ideally the full cost of $12 per sign.

Sign Placement
Place signs more than 14 feet from the white line of any state roads or they will be picked up by the state highway crews. Restrictions on town roads may vary.
Place your signs where they will be visible from the road, and not blocked by growing vegetation. The practice being highlighted should be clearly visible behind the sign.
Sign Promotion
Take a picture with the sign, the practice you are promoting (and yourself, if you wish!)
Send it to info@franklincountynrcd.org or post it to social media with #signsofconservation.
We will use your pictures to further promote the good work!
Sign Storage
Remove and store your signs when the practice you are advertising is no longer obviously visible (e.g. cover crop has been terminated.)
Remove and store your signs before winter. With proper care, signs should last two or more seasons.
