Bradford Public Tree Planting
Protecting drinking water begins at the source. In many cases, planting native trees and shrubs along shorelines can improve bank stability, dissipate flood waters, trap excess nutrients, and in turn, result in cleaner water for millions downstream. MRWC recently received federal funding to complete landscape-scale restoration projects throughout the Merrimack River Watershed, and planting trees tops the list. Join other community volunteers to get your hands dirty to improve the health of your local watershed! We will be planting trees in Bradford, NH.
For this event, trees will be planted along a brook draining forested headwaters, and home to wild Brook Trout. Plantings will revegetate a narrow buffer between a dirt road and the stream, reducing sediment runoff into the waterway. Location details will be provided after registering. This event will occur through the generosity of private landowner permission to benefit public resources, so your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
