BACKYARD CONSERVATION PROGRAM The Backyard Conservation Program (BCP) is a joint effort of the Wildlife Habitat Council, the National Association of Conservation Districts, and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. The BCP is designed to educate private homeowners about conservation measures they can put to work in their own backyards. TRCD is recognized throughout the country for its progressive BCP. The Best Management Practices Program and the Invasive Species Program at TRCD both fall under the BCP umbrella. TRCD works with partner agencies to obtain grant funding and integrate all aspects of backyard conservation into programs, such as fire defensible space, water conservation, fertilizer management, and wildlife habitat enhancement.
