Stewards of the Beautiful Land: Water Quality Monitoring in Iowa

Iowa's watersheds face many unique threats from industrial, agricultural, residential and even natural sources. Join Trees Forever and guest presenter Jackie Gautsch, Senior Environmental Specialist with the Iowa DNR, to explore what “water quality” means and how Iowa is monitoring this resource.
Native plants with deep roots systems play a large role in filtering water and keeping soil in place to improve water quality. We will explore more about these strategies and access useful data the state collects to assess water quality.
