hands-on workshop is designed for individuals interested in learning how to use
practical, low cost techniques for restoring naturally appearing and
functioning wetlands. Lead by wetland restoration expert Tom Biebighauser,
participants will see how wetland projects can be planned in land trust
properties and other private conserved lands, public land, and even on school
grounds to benefit plants, animals, and people. Through direct participation in
an actual wetland restoration project at Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary,
attendees will discover how to identify degraded wetlands suitable for
restoration, test soils, choose construction techniques, work with heavy
equipment operators, and establish native plants. Also, through a series of
presentations, participants will learn about active management projects
involving rare wetland species including Mass Audubon’s Eastern Spadefoot
Toad Restoration Project on Cape Cod. Field trips to proposed and existing
wetland restoration project sites are included.</span></b><b><span
