A floodplain forest undergoing restoration on a Vermont farm

Our ecologist, Allaire Diamond, visits a farm where a floodplain forest along the Winooski River is undergoing restoration. She visited shortly after the devastating flooding of July 2023.

I always marvel at how, no matter how much we do to control it, Nature is always ready to say, "Hold my beer." 😏 Best wishes from Newport (home of Bluffside Farm). 🍁

I was hoping this would be about an area in Colchester that may be a recreation area. My reading in Vermont Public tells me it should be conserved because it is unique habitat. I don't know how to draw more attention to the situation, much less excavation and pavement.
