Our comeback story can’t be written without you. Olmsted County Public Health, Mayo Clinic, and Olmsted Medical Center have teamed up to provide up to date and important information regarding the COVID-19 vaccine. Our best hope to come back together as family, friends, and a community is the COVID-19 vaccine.
Olmsted County is pleased to announce the launch of its new Accela Citizen Access website. The online application/permitting site features more information on Olmsted County Planning services; and, with a new look and feel, it is easier to navigate to find what you’re looking for quickly and efficiently.
Each year, in October, The Olmsted County Soil and Water Conservation District sells trees and shrubs in bundles of 20 to 25 bare-root transplants. This is an inexpensive way to simply add color and beauty to your property. The trees are great for homestead windbreaks, living snow fences, and wildlife habitat.
New for 2021 the district is now offering Seed Mixes and Plant Kits for the public to purchase via the SWCD Sales Website.
