Being Water Wise Through Landscape Management: Presented by Anisa MacOwan (GVSU Senior Water Sustainability Student) and Sarah Bowman (Watershed & Conservation Specialist for Ottawa Conservation District)

• If you live in the Great Lakes State, you may think that access to water will always be available.  New research indicates this may not necessarily be true.  Learn about the natural and human-induced factors that are contributing to declining water levels in the natural water storage systems (aquifers) that are located deep underground in Ottawa County and what you can do at home to help conserve water and reduce water waste. The more you know, the more you can help to protect this important natural resource.  Visit ottawacd.org/groundwater/ for additional information.

Attendance will be limited to 40 people per event. Please register in advance to reserve your spot here.

This event is free to attend but we highly encourage all participants to support our hosts, Trail Point Brewing Company, by enjoying a beer or craft soda. Learn more about Trail Point Brewing Company at www.trailpointbrewing.com/.

Come on out to learn a little bit about Ottawa County-specific conservation topics and support local actions!
