One of the goals of the Agroecology Issue Team is to get information about the assessment, design, and maintenance of riparian buffers out to the public. For more than a decade, we have worked with landowners in the Bear Creek Watershed to install riparian buffers to reduce erosion, nitrate runoff, improve wildlife habitat, and aesthetics. You can learn a little more about the history of the bear creek watershed by clicking HERE. Looking North out of Roland. This is the new Larson Buffer.
