Help save the lake with a free buffer
garden!
One of the things lakeshore owners
can do protect the health of the lake is to provide a buffer garden along the
shorefront to filter harmful runoff into the lake. And thanks to a program provided by the Poultney-Mettowee
Conservation District, property owners can now have an attractive and
functional buffer garden planted for free through a program called LEAP (Lake
Education and Action Program)!
