Education is the first step to changing peoples' attitudes about water quality.
Our project educates children and adults about how water influences their lives and, in turn, how their actions impact water quality. The goal is to reduce unnecessary inputs that may eventually reach water resources. In the long run, farmers save money and protect water quality. Currently, ten farmers are managing 2,232 acres in this program. Town meetings in Holstein and Battle Creek informed 70 residents about local water quality efforts.
