In October of 2024, the San Benito RCD hosted the annual CARCD Central Coast Regional Fall Meeting at Paicines Ranch in San Benito County. There was a great showing from RCDs in the central coast region, as well as partners from CARCD, NRCS, Department of Conservation, Pacific Policy Group, Point Blue STRAW, and more. This meeting gave regional partners in attendance an opportunity to give reports, updates, discuss state policies, funding for RCDs, and the status of the region. During the meeting, Paul Hain was given a certificate of recognition by for 34 years of service to San Benito County and its agricultural community. Additionally, attendees were given a tour of Paicines Ranch along with an overview of their Beaver Dam Analog Project along the San Benito River. 

Thank you to all who attended, and to Paicines Ranch and their staff for providing an excellent venue for the CARCD Central Coast Regional Fall Meeting.
