Excited to partner with El Dorado Resource Conservation District on a restoration project to fix the upper Cosumnes River watershed’s critical condition after years of drought and the catastrophic Caldor Fire. This project is critical for protecting the Grizzly Flats community.

Droughts don’t just impact reservoirs and rivers, they put real pressure on the water people use every day. We worked with @CountyElDorado to develop a plan to help domestic well owners and small water systems prepare for and respond to water shortages. https://t.co/UlJqNUNvKo

A successful Farm Day is in the books! We partnered with El Dorado Irrigation District to teach students how water flows from the mountains to support Apple Hill and they had fun acting out a farm “water mystery” that connected the dots between water, ag lands, and our community!
