On Thursday, December 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. via Zoom, we will have the privilege of hearing from professionally-registered forester Herb Hammond. Now retired, Hammond has over 45 years of experience in the field of forestry research, consulting, and education. His is the voice you’ll hear in this 4-minute video about the Peachland Watershed, a watershed that bears an eerie resemblance to the Jetty Creek Watershed. Hammond wrote: “I have spent decades working to protect watersheds, with much of my focus being on watersheds used for consumptive use. However, the principles that govern forest hydrology and what is needed to protect water apply to any watershed.” Register here.
