Watershed Restoration Volunteer Day

640 480 Stroud Water Research Center

Volunteers will help measure trees and record data from an experiment this spring. This study is part of a federal grant that resulted from the devastation that followed Hurricane Sandy. Hurricanes and other extreme water events teach us that we need our headwaters and small first order streams to absorb water to reduce the force and rate of water discharge during storms.

Help the Stroud Center restore our local streams by planting trees. Healthy forests are essential to the life-support systems of our streams. Trees filter contaminants before they reach the water, stabilize the stream bank, and provide food, shade, and habitat for fish and wildlife!
