Low-Tech Tailgate Talk: Reducing Erosion with Materials from your Own Landscape
Learn how to prevent erosion and improve your land with simple, low-cost solutions!
Heavy rains can carve channels through fields and pastures, washing away valuable soil and changing the landscape. This workshop will show participants how simple low-tech erosion control (LTEC) structures can protect their land, restore natural water flow, and improve water quality—all without the need for heavy machinery or high costs. After the presentation, participants will take a short walk to view several LTEC structures already installed on site and see first-hand how these methods slow water, capture sediment, and restore natural landscape. Lunch will be provided at no cost. RSVP required!
Speakers:
Daniel Hagood, Sr. Ecologist, Beaver Watershed Alliance
Larry Berry, Program Director, Beaver Watershed Alliance
Alliance staff will be available afterward to answer questions and help you sign up for a free Low-Tech Erosion Control Plan for your property. Funding is available to assist with installation.
The workshop will be taking place in Huntsville, approximately one mile north of Walmart. RSVP for the address.
