Learn from the experts how to design your shoreline landscape to protect and beautify your waterfront property!

Join the Iron County Lakes and Streams Partnership for a unique learning and planning opportunity. The morning session will focus on best shoreline practices – finding out what is possible. The afternoon session will shift to making plans that suit your specific property dynamics with the help of knowledgeable educators and professionals. Erick Elgin of MSU Extension will be the workshop leader. 

A Pasty lunch will be provided for participants planning to stay for the entire workshop. Please choose a Pasty flavor when registering: traditional beef, vegetable, or breakfast. Coffee, Water & Soda will be available.

Registration is required by emailing iclakesandstreamspartnership@gmail.com. Please include your name, lake or river where property is located and Pasty choice if you will be joining us for lunch. Additional information will be sent via email after registration.
