The Resource Conservation District (RCD) of Greater San Diego County aims to protect, conserve, and restore natural resources through information, education, and technical assistance. We work across the majority of San Diego County on a variety of programs, including fire prevention and education, watershed education, school garden support, promotion of pollinator habitat, management of two large community gardens and a regenerative farm.

Through its Agricultural Department, the RCD supports farmers and ranchers to implement climate-smart agricultural practices, monitor the benefits of conservation practices, and connect with resources and educational opportunities. The RCD has received funding to provide technical assistance, conservation planning resources, and grant application support to the San Diego agricultural community from the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), among others.

We are seeking a Farm Conservation Advisor who is passionate and knowledgeable about agriculture and natural resource conservation to support conservation planning and agricultural technical assistance within the RCD’s agricultural programming. This position is at-will, funding-dependent, and is a full-time position, subject to adequate performance reviews.
