Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy Holds Ribbon Cutting for New Location
The
Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy celebrated a ribbon cutting at its new location in the village of Lakewood Friday. The organization recently celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2020. CWC Board President Becky Nystrom said the new location is more accessible and energy efficient, “As a result of our asks to all of our board and donors, we were able to raise $112,850 for our down payment. So we can afford the mortgage and it’s not a whole lot different from what we were paying up on the third floor of our old home, so thank you!”

At 10 a.m. Monday, the Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy will be presenting a free “Nature’s Best Hope” webinar, featuring Dr. Doug Tallamy, a professor and author in the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology at the University of Delaware.
Recent headlines about global insect declines and three billion fewer birds in North America are a bleak reality check, and our current landscape designs are ineffective at sustaining the plants and animals that sustain us. Dr. Tallamy will be discussing simple steps that each of us can – and must – take to reverse declining biodiversity and will explain why we are “nature’s best hope.” A certificate of completion will be available by request following the webinar. This webinar is hosted by CWC and co-sponsored by the Canandaigua Lake Watershed Association.
