A partnership with landowners in the community to enhance natural resources with fish habitat enhancements, erosion mitigation, invasive species removal, and the establishment native trees and shrubs.

Overview

Description:

The Watershed Restoration Program partners with landowners in the local community to enhance their natural resources. The program encompasses a range of initiatives, including fish enhancement, erosion mitigation, invasive species removal, and the establishment native trees and shrubs. By working together, we can improve the environment and ensure its conserved for generations to come.

Erosion Mitigation:
We work closely with local landowners to help mitigate erosion along streams and rivers. Our team of experts provides effective solutions that are tailored to the unique needs of each property. With our help, you can protect your land and conserve the health of nearby waterways.

Riparian Plantings:
Connecting with landowners to provide free native trees and shrubs is a great way to help establish riparian buffers. These buffers can help protect water quality and provide habitat for wildlife.

Invasive Species Removal:
We offer our expertise to landowners in identifying and eliminating invasive species and noxious weeds. Our approach involves not only removing these harmful plants but also restoring the natural balance of the ecosystem by planting native trees and shrubs. We are committed to helping you protect your land and maintain its natural beauty.

Aquatic Habitat Enhancement:
Habitat enhancement plans are crucial for conserving and restoring local ecosystems. Our team is dedicated to developing effective plans and securing funding to make them a reality. We work closely with landowners to ensure that these plans are and that the local environment is well-cared for.
