The Natural Resource Education and Outreach program is involved in a variety of activities. Read about, educational opportunities under Education. Outreach activities include the annual Festival of the River, hosting several stewardship/restoration/research events annually, and providing workshops or lessons for a variety of groups.
Staff also meet with landowners about land-use and water quality concerns. We arrange riparian plantings and help landowners apply for various government programs to assist landowners conservation, such as CREP (Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program). When appropriate we apply for grants to compensate landowners who for various reasons cannot reap the full economic value of natural resources on their land.
