Watershed Restoration

NATIVE VEGETATION PROGRAM

Native Vegetation Project
Several times a year, volunteers of all ages are invited to take part in collecting seeds and/or re-planting germinated seeds and saplings in local watershed areas. The collection, germination and planting of such native vegetation helps to stabilize slopes and overlying soil for erosion control and mitigation of siltation. Such planting also allows a larger amount of precipitation to percolate into the ground and aids in the restoration of the natural habitat. Since its inception, over 65,000 trees have been planted through this program.
