The St. Clair County Conservation District has appointed Tim Alsup of Cropwell as a new Supervisor for the St. Clair County Conservation District board.   

Alsup is a veteran of the US Marine Corp and served one tour in Operation Iraqi Freedom.  He was employed at the Anniston Army Depot for 11 years.  He has recently started farming his family farm with wife Jennifer Hobbs Alsup and their three children, Kadence 5, Teagan 3, and Hoyt 4 months.   

Alsup will be joining sitting supervisors Chairman Perry Poe, Vice-Chair Donald Ray Walker, Garry Staples, and Terry Templin.  The District’s responsibility is to assist landowners and land users in protecting and conserving the natural resources in St. Clair County.    

For nearly 80 years, St. Clair County Conservation District has been committed to conserving St. Clair County’s natural resources by connecting those who use and work the land to the education, technical know-how, and resources they need. This stewardship revived the landscape from the devastation of the 1930’s and continues to improve quality of life for all Alabama citizens.  

The St. Clair County Conservation District is part of a statewide movement in the conservation of Alabama’s natural resources: Conserve Alabama. Conserve Alabama is an initiative of the State of Alabama Soil and Water Conservation Committee to re-energize and unite stakeholders in the effort to be good stewards of land and water. With growing population and increased demand of resources in the 21st Century, it is more important than ever that we use our resources wisely. 

St. Clair County Conservation District’s monthly board meeting is held the third Tuesday of the month at 7:30 a.m. The public is invited to attend. Contact their office at 205-338-7215 for information.
