SUMMARY:Riparian Restoration for Working Lands Workshop

The event will take place from 9:00–10:00 AM\, and the venue will close at 11:00 AM. \n\nIf you have questions about this event\, need special accommodations to participate or are interested in riparian restoration for working lands\, please contact the event coordinators and district agricultural conservation planners\, Becky Pineda – Pasture and Livestock at becky.pineda@marionswcd.net \, 503-949-1518\, or Cesar Zamora – Soil and Croplands\, at cesar.zamora@marinoswcd.net\, 971-372-1341.
