Welcome to the
Pathway to Water Quality

The Pathway to Water Quality Exhibit has been a popular fixture at the Indiana State Fairgrounds since 1993. It is an excellent watershed demonstration site, showing how proper management practices at home, on the farm and in business can protect our soil and water resources. The PWQ Coordinator is Justin Armstrong, Indiana State Fair Commission.

The PWQ exhibit contains practical displays and information for anyone who uses the land. The PWQ exhibit is managed by the Indiana Conservation Partnership (ICP) in conjunction with the Hamilton and Marion County Soil and Water Conservation Districts.

Where does all the water go after it rains? How does what people do on their land at home, on the farm and in the cities affect water and soil quality? Pathway to Water Quality can show you. Pathway to Water Quality is a model watershed that shows you how land "sheds" excess water and what than means to you.
