Master Watershed Steward Program
The Master Watershed Steward Program in Graham
County provides education to citizens of the county to equip them to serve
their communities in enchancing local natural resources. The program consists
of a series of educational sessions, several of which are field trips.
Some of the topics covered in the program are:
- geology
- climate
- watershed and stream processes
- soils and erosion
- vegetation and wildlife, and
- water related issues.
After completing the training sessions, participants are expected to volunteer 40 hours on a watershed enhancement project in their community or on their own land to apply the information and skills received from the program. Projects may included on-the-ground enhancement activities, monitoring, survey or assessment, community education, curriculum development or create your own!
