The Delaware SWCD is pleased to announce an addition to the Delaware NRCS office.  Meet Chris Elliott, in his own words…

Chris Elliott, NRCS

Hello everyone. My name is Chris Elliott and I am the new Soil Conservationist for Delaware County. I was born and raised in Gallipolis, OH. In 2013 I graduated from Gallia Academy High school and left South Eastern Ohio to continue my education at Morehead State University in Morehead, Kentucky. During my senior year, I began an Internship with the NRCS in the Huntington, WV working primarily with High Tunnel Systems. In 2017 I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Agronomy and started working for the NRCS full time as a Soil Conservationist and was relocated to Greenbrier County, WV. I spent most of those 2 years working with livestock producers implementing adequate water and grazing systems on their land. I am extremely grateful to be back in the buckeye state and look forward to getting to work with all of you!
