Trees for Tributaries Program: An Opportunity to Reforest Your Streamside Areas
Do you have a stream running through your property? In Madison County, there are over 1,000 miles of stream, so there is a pretty good chance you or your neighbor might! Streams are their best when the riparian area, or land area next to the stream, is forested. The New York State Department of Environment Conservation’s “Trees for Tributaries” Program provides landowners with native trees and shrubs at no cost to reforest these streamside areas.
We are here to help you plan and plant your buffer through this program. The main eligibility requirement is to have a stream on your property. Private and public sites qualify for the program.
If you or someone you know is interested in learning more about the program, please contact Joann Burke (joann-burke@verizon.net) or Troy Bishopp (troy-bishopp@verizon.net) or call (315)824-9849 ext. 5.
