SVFHP All Hands Meeting Flyer 2024

The St. Vrain Forest Health Partnership, coordinated by The Watershed Center, brings together diverse stakeholders and community members to prepare the landscape and community to receive wildland fire as a natural part of the ecosystem. Working across the 625,000 acre St. Vrain Watershed, we collaboratively plan and implement cross-jurisdictional forest management, conduct adaptive management, integrate the best available science into management, and facilitate community engagement. At this event, members of the St. Vrain Forest Health Partnership will provide updates on the work they are planning and conducting across the watershed, followed by the opportunity for community members to have direct conversations with forest and fire management entities. Prior to the meeting, we will also have an optional tour of the forestry work currently being conducted by the Boulder Valley and Longmont Conservation Districts at Highlands Camp! Pick and choose between sections, or attend them all!
