Fall Riparian Restoration Update | December 2023

Fall Riparian Restoration Update | December 2023

By Kat Hall

We’re pleased to report the successful completion of another busy, fun, and productive fall riparian restoration season at The Lands Council! This year’s “Rocktober,” as we affectionately call it, saw us planting over 2,600 native trees and shrubs along Thompson Creek, Deadman Creek, Marshall Creek, and the Little Spokane River. This vegetation helps to stabilize soil and prevent erosion; filters contaminants running off adjacent roads and agricultural fields; shades the creek—cooling water temperatures and allowing for more dissolved oxygen; and enhances wildlife habitat.

First, I want to thank all of you who have stepped up to help The Lands Council during a challenging 2020. Your support of our conservation work is greatly appreciated! I am hopeful that we will safely move beyond the pandemic in 2021, get vaccines, and see our local businesses re-open.
