Get to Know Your Watershed
The Lower Sugar River Watershed is a diverse and beautiful area. Rolling hills, lowlands, and wetlands create a rich landscape for the many springs and streams that flow through and beneath the land and into the Sugar River. Our watershed provides clean drinking water, healthy soil to grow our food, year-round recreation, and a habitat for wildlife. Get to know YOUR watershed!
Why Watersheds Matter
Nothing is more important than having clean water to drink! A well-functioning watershed provides clean drinking water, irrigation, and healthy soil for crop production, protection from flooding, and adequate wildlife habitat, in addition to providing enjoyment and outdoor recreation opportunities. We ALL have a stake in clean water!
