Project Photo of the Day: Lake-friendly landscaping

Today’s project highlight and photo comes to us from Andrea LaMoreaux of the NH Lakes Association. Thanks for sharing Andrea!

 On July 26, 2013, the New Hampshire Lakes Association, in cooperation with the Eastman Lakes & Streams Committee and the NH Department of Environmental Services, hosted the “Lake-Friendly Landscaping: What, Why & Try” workshop at Eastman Community Center in Grantham. Attendees learned about why stormwater runoff is a problem for our lakes and what resources are available to help homeowners reduce runoff. After lunch, attendees worked together to build a vegetated buffer along Eastman Lake (see photo)!
