About the webinar

Learn the basics of riparian buffer installation and restoration, along with ways to engage your community members on the topic of effective riparian buffers and the importance of protecting local waterways.

When we focus only on landowners with stream-side property, we overlook the need to educate and gain the support of people who do not live on a stream. It is also important to make sure there is an understanding of what a stream is and isn’t, because if the landowner thinks that what they own is “just a ditch with water running through it”, then they won’t think they need to buffer it! This session is designed to inspire you to talk to new people about riparian areas and to serve as a primer for the more in-depth topics in riparian restoration (planning, planting, and post-planting care).
