About this organization
Mission
We work to protect and improve water quality in the lakes and streams of the upper Tippecanoe River watershed. We do this by implementing solutions, engaging youth & adults and uniting partners.
About
Watershed management: The upper Tippecanoe River watershed is 236 sq. miles in parts of 3 counties & contains more than 60 lakes and streams. Over the past 21 years, we have identified more than 300 sites where improvements would benefit water quality. We have partnered with many organizations and landowners to complete >190 of these projects. Recent projects include: (1) Healthy shores initiative encourages installation of glacial stones and native plants on our lakeshores. (2) Wetland restoration projects filter sediment and nutrients. (3) Soil health-best farm practices are installed to keep soil in place, reduce fertilizers, and trap runoff. Pollution projects completed in the last 6 years have reduced water pollution and prevented the growth of one billion pounds of weeds and algae.
