"We're taking a whole county, whole state, whole world approach to conservation right here in Ohio." Ohio is the heart of conservation. Through H2Ohio, farmers around the state are working every day to be good stewards of the land, improve water quality, and lead by example.

As part of Governor Mike DeWine’s H2Ohio initiative, ODNR Director Mary Mertz joined local officials in St. Marys to celebrate a new wetland system. The pools trap sediment and nutrients, manage stormwater, and support wildlife for long‑term benefits for Ohio’s natural resources.

Cheers to that! In the last several years, #H2Ohio and @OhioEPA have invested more than $9 million for 100 public water systems for lead service line identification and replacement. More than $2 million of that has gone specifically to daycares across the state!

Little is more important than having access to reliable, clean drinking water. That's why we developed @H2Ohio, our state's long-term comprehensive plan to address Ohio's most pressing water quality issues. Since launching in 2019, H2Ohio has brought drinking water to communities without a dependable water source and helped remove dangerous lead pipes feeding into local daycares. By creating wetlands and developing partnerships with thousands of farmers, we've also reduced the nutrient runoff that fuels algal blooms in our lakes and rivers. With H2Ohio, we've created great momentum to make lasting change to Ohio's waterways. Learn more at h2.ohio.gov.
