The cutting, toting, & planting crew, I mean the workshop participants


Live Siltation behind the LPSTP – Bend 1


Planting RPM trees & shrubs planted at specific heights above the water


Soil was soft enough in places Live Stakes could be pushed in - BEND #1


Or slap a Sycamore with the trackhoe & release a thousand seeds


We talked the Pennington sales rep out of 4 bags of

“Pennington SLOPEMASTER Mix”

grass seed. This seed worked well in our

application. Extreme upper bank was not as lush or robust as other

areas. Possibly a lack of moisture issue?
