Hi. I’m Governor Brad Henry. April 30th through May 7th marks Natural Resource Stewardship Week in Oklahoma. This is a time for all of us to reflect on the importance of conserving and protecting our soil, water, air and wildlife habitat. Please join me in celebrating the conservation work of our farmers, ranchers and other landowners as well as our locally-led conservation districts and their state and federal partners.
