A Brief History

The soil health trailer started as a Clean Water Indiana (CWI) grant in 2017 between the counties of Hamilton (lead), Boone, Clinton, and Madison.  This was a 3 year grant and after many road bumps and changes the trailer is nearly complete. The trailer is available for exterior utilization and backdrops for events and programming for everyone to see!
