Watershed Resiliency Program
The LSWC will help plan, budget, fund, and resource your next watershed conservation project with tailored support for agriculture, acreage, and lakefront landowners.
The LSWC engages with local landowners to support the implementation of projects that conserve, protect or create riparian areas and wetlands. By utilizing the collective knowledge of our network of partners we want to ensure the success of projects in our watershed.
