Stream Smart: Protecting Streambanks, Boosting Biodiversity
March 29 @ 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Discover how healthy streambanks reduce erosion, improve water quality, and support diverse plants and wildlife. Get your hands dirty for a good cause! This workshop teaches how to stabilize and repair small sections of streambanks while exploring stream morphology, legal guidelines, and effective restoration tools. Try your hand at installing coir matting, planting live stakes, and sowing native seeds above the high water mark. See inspiring examples of successful projects and leave with knowledge anyone can use to support healthier waterways—whether you live next to a stream or just care about the environment. Bring work gloves, knee-high rubber boots, and a refillable water bottle. All other tools will be provided. To register, visit: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1980568857769?aff=oddtdtcreator Questions?
