During the first five years of growth, young trees need to be protected from chewing — from deer above and rodents below.
Jeff and Sue Frey received a lifetime achievement award that recognizes exemplary role models of outstanding management, land stewardship, and community leadership.
Learn how far our watershed restoration program has come in nearly 10 years and where we’re going to help farms adopt science-based solutions that restore healthy streams.
Help take care of our streamsides across Lancaster County! We will be planting trees, weeding, and tending to native plantings.
Watch a video presentation outlining our research and case studies on how to maximize tree survival and growth in forested stream buffers.
It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to our friend Greg Wilson, a force for good in the restoration of Lancaster County’s freshwater streams.
Improving a stream along your property protects the stream, your land, and trout habitat, along with helping the Chesapeake Bay.
The Stroud Center worked with the Brubakers on measures to protect water quality, including manure management, fencing cows out of Donegal Creek, and planting streamside forest buffers.
Stroud Center researchers have teamed up with Propagate Ventures to design and implement for-profit, lower-risk buffers that can provide a source of income for farmers.
The planting will help to buffer a small stream from nearby barnyard activity and provide data about the growth rates of trees using two different types of tree stakes.
