Making an Ecological Difference
I'm an angler, a hiker, a camper, and adventurer but even more than
that, I love nature. As a kid I used to love to play in mud puddles and
would create drainage channels for them and I always wanted them to
look like a mini stream. Fast forward to my job to today and I have
been fortunate enough to gain employment as a Project Manager for a
watershed organization. This is a job I have been able to sink my teeth
into for 8 years. The Kennebecasis Watershed Restoration Committee
works hard at creating sustainable solutions to the regions ecological
problems. The group has completed numerous riparian and flood plain
enhancement projects through its 20+ years of work. In 2014 I managed a
project where we used georolls as a bank stabilization tool and then
planted the site with native trees and shrubs to improve overall
ecological health. We've created a short video of the project check it
out.
See you in the woods or on the water.
