Why it's Important: Learning how to best care for Colorado's ecosystems is a valuable way to take your stewardship to the next level. This training will address a critical part of ecological restoration: beaver dam analogs. This training will help give you the tools to assess when implementing these structures is necessary and how to construct them in a safe and sustainable manner.
What You'll Learn: In this single-day workshop, you'll join a small class to receive hands-on training in constructing and maintaining beaver dam analogs. This low-tech restoration approach is highly effective at preventing environmental harm in riparian ecosystems. To assist your learning you will receive reference materials that you can keep for future projects.
Essential Details:
- This training will take place on Saturday May 9 from 9am-4pm.
