Change of Seasons

Springtime has officially hit the Arkansas Delta as teperatures rise to the 60's and 70's during the day, encouraging new plant growth on our restoration site.  Hundreds of live willow stakes that have remained dormant since installation are now vigorously producing leaves and root-systems essential to the stability of the carefully-sculpted streambanks.

Over the next two to three weeks, we plan on installing an additional three- thousand black willow and buttonbush live stakes within the newly constructed stream. We are trying to take full advantage of the present mild temperatures and moist soils that are optimal for plant growth and propagation.
