Alfred, ME – wetland restoration area before restoration
Our summer 2017 newsletter reviewed our work so far on the Alfred wetland and stream restoration project for Three Rivers Land Trust. Here are a few photos showing the area before we started and progress so far. We’ll update the blog as we complete restoration. We’ve already seen frogs and dragonflies visiting the new wetland ponds!
