We hope you enjoyed a wonderful holiday season! The Alliance wrapped up a busy 2015, which you can recap in our end-of-the-year letter, found here and here.
We’re kicking off 2016 with planning for the Hands On Arroyo Restoration Training Workshop. We hope you’ll join us to learn about low-tech watershed restoration techniques and gain hands-on training and work experience on a project on the Noon Ranch located in Arivaca, Arizona. We’ll work on the installation of rock erosion control structures in an arroyo that is a tributary to Arivaca Creek. Workshop leader Steve Carson will use watershed treatments described by Bill Zeedyk, co-author of Let the Water Do the Work (The Quivira Coalition 2009). Space is limited, so register soon! You can find the registration form here. If you wish to pay by credit card, please do so via the Alliance’s Support/Donate page and make a note of it on your registration form.
