RIparian Recovery Network News
The Riparian Network is about creating a shared vision for restoration of riparian zones and the uplands that impact them. The intent is to balance individual needs with what is required to keep Hays County waterways clean, healthy, and beautiful.
We distribute a periodic newsletter (every 4-6 weeks) covering a wide range of topics of interest to those seeking to restore ecological function. Or those who simply want to learn more about nature and its relationship to land management practices.
For more information/assistance or to add your name to our newsletter’s e-mail list, contact riparian@haysmn.org.
And enjoy our video on the role riparian vegetation plays in preserving the quality and quality of water in our Hill Country streams.
