Development and Distribution of Educational
Brochures
Funded by a grant from the League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania’s
Citizen Education Fund, which is being administered by our sponsor,
Lancaster County Conservation District, TCCCA is in the process of
developing two educational brochures for distribution to residents of the
Watershed.
The first brochure will highlight the importance of stream bank fencing
and establishing forested riparian buffers along the Conewago and its
tributaries. The brochure will provide individuals with basic information
about the many stream bank fencing and planting programs available to
landowners. These programs will pay 100% of the cost of installing the
fencing and plantings, and some will even allow farmers to earn additional
money simply be letting the fenced off areas grow! TCCCA can provide
important services to farmers and other landowners, such as volunteer
labor to plant trees and maintain the plantings so that they become
established.
The second brochure will contain a detailed map and guide of the Conewago
Creek Watershed and highlight the many recreational opportunities
available in the Watershed. It also will list easy ways for you to protect
your watershed in your daily activities.
Watershed residents should look for these brochures in the mail sometime
soon. If you do not receive them but would like a copy of one or both of
the brochures, just contact TCCCA and we will be happy to send them to
you.
