Care for land and water with CVC


Protect the natural beauty of the countryside with guidance from Credit Valley Conservation (CVC).
Landowners are invited to the Caring for Your Land and Water workshop Feb. 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Caledon Village Place at 18313 Hurontario St., Caledon village.
“This workshop is a great way for rural landowners to give nature a helping hand,” CVC's Deputy CAO and Director of Watershed Transformation Mike Puddister said. “Landowners can learn about their rural properties and create an action plan to help protect the environment.”
More than 90 per cent of the Credit River watershed is privately owned. Learning how to care for streams, ponds, wetlands and forests on a property helps protect the natural resources that everybody depends on.
“Taking steps to create a healthy environment on your property protects drinking water sources, biodiversity and the natural beauty of the countryside,” CVC's Stewardship Coordinator Alison Qua-Enoo observed.
Following the workshop, participants can schedule a site visit to discuss environmental projects and funding eligibility through CVC's Landowner Action Fund.
Register by noon Feb. 19 at www.creditvalleyca.ca/events
For more information, call 1-800-668-5557, ext. 436. Interested landowners should own one acre or more of rural property in the Credit River watershed.
Workshops are free, thanks to funding from CVC's regional and municipal partners.
