Landowner Resources

The majority of land in the watershed is privately owned. Landowner stewardship is key to the long term health of the watershed. Friends of the Winooski can provide assistance to individual landowners, large and small, to help them be good watershed stewards. We work with landowners to help Restore Riparian Vegetation (plant trees and shrubs along streams). We provide free Storm Smart and Stream Wise consultations. 

Here are links to publications with more detailed information that may be relevant to managing your property:
