Conserving Wild Wonders:
The Institute’s Pond Restoration Design Study
PROJECT SCOPE:
A comprehensive design study that will support the restoration of an approximately one-acre pond, aesthetically and functionally, in support of future educational, conservation, and recreational activities.
Our beautiful pond is a prominent feature of our nature center campus. It’s teeming with life, but currently suffering from bank erosion, a breech through the north pond wall, accumulation of nutrients and inadequate circulation.
This project will provide us with the information needed to proceed with the construction phase of a project that will help us conserve this incredible Wild Wonder for enjoyment by our community well into the future!
