Last year, Trout Unlimited (TU) and Bennington County Conservation District (BCCD) received a Vermont Watershed Grant from Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation and Vermont Fish & Wildlife and support from the Batten Kill Watershed Alliance to conduct outreach to landowners about the importance of Forests to Fish (specifically trout).
The goal of this effort is to improve stream and streamside stewardship through education and implementation of projects focused on the forest â stream interactions that are so very important to our watersheds. Watershed projects may include stream buffer plantings, in-stream wood additions, culvert replacements and bank stabilization.
