Conservation Convention: Post-Storms Community Workshop
It is no secret that Northern Michigan has had its share of recent natural disasters that have left the community looking for answers. In an effort to connect residents with resources, education, and assistance, the Otsego Conservation District, HeadWaters Land Conservancy, and Huron Pines are hosting Conservation Con: Post Storms Community Workshop. This event brings conservation groups, emergency resources, and the public together to share information about environmental disaster mitigation and preparation. Attendees will hear from speakers across forestry, utilities, water quality, environmental services, and emergency management, and will leave better prepared to deal with the aftermath of recent storms as well as future disasters. This event is made possible by a grant from the Disaster Response Fund of the Otsego Community Foundation. This event is free and open to the public. Local residents, conservation professionals, emergency management staff, and community organizations from across Northern Michigan are all welcome.
