SUMMARY:Earthworks for Cold Climate Water Resiliency
DESCRIPTION:Drought and flood are two sides of the same coin; A broken water cycle is the root cause for both. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nJoin Takota Coen from Coen Farm and Rob Avis from Verge Permaculture for an online workshop that will cover earthworks and construction topics. \nYou will learn how to design and implement low-tech\, low-cost\, nature-based earthworks that can build more effective and efficient water cycles on your land. Gain insight on revegetation techniques and traditional uses of native plants. \nThe workshop will take place in three sessions: March 23\, 25\, and 30\, from 3-6PM. \nCost: $30/ person. Students & Maskwacis community members\, please contact AWES for reduced rates. \n  \n\n** Please register on Eventbrite!

SUMMARY:Streambank Restoration Project - Video Release
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the \, and learn about our efforts to increase resilience of Alberta’s land! \nWater- while critical to humans and their activities\, its actions can also cause problems\, such as erosion. Water is fluid\, needs room to move so that it can help us by recharging groundwater\, providing habitat and providing drinking water.  \nEvery spring overland flows race towards the stream on Graham Powell’s 3rd generation La Glace farm. He knew he was losing land due to erosion. The stream could not access a floodplain. Restoration was needed and the AgroForestry & Woodlot Extension Society\, Alberta Conservation Association\, the County of Grande Prairie\, Cows and Fish and the Mighty Peace Watershed Alliance joined together with Watershed Artisans and Graham Powell and began to restore the Niobe Creek Watershed. We are excited to share the process with you all! \nOn December 15\, 2020\, you will have the opportunity to learn more about this restoration\, the organizations behind the project\, and their current and future endeavors to increase riparian resilience\, improve and provide wildlife habitats\, reduce flood risk\, and provide sustainable solutions to heal Alberta’s land\, water and the riparian areas in between. \nThere will be a chance to win a $50 doorprize at the end of the session. We look forward to celebrating this project with you!
