AgriLife Extension land steward programs to focus on Trinity River Basin




To see this news release, visit the AgriLife Today website.

Free workshops for landowners will be held November 21 in Kaufman and November 22 in Huntsville.  Topics to be discussed include developing partnerships to better conserve our natural resources for wildlife and water conservation, ongoing projects within the Trinity River Basin, financial assistance opportunities, wetland and wildlife management, and training for the new TRIMS online mapping tool.  TRIMS was designed with the landowner in mind as this free online tool helps in conservation planning activities and pasture management by providing recent aerial photography, the ability to measure parcels of land, as well as soil, elevation, and hydrology data.

To sign up, visit trinitwaters.org under the "Events" page.
