Landscaping for Lakes -September 17th at 7 PM
September 17 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Presented by the New Jersey Landscape Makeover Program
Join Stephen Elliott (Pinelands Preservation Alliance) for a free webinar on how Green Infrastructure and native landscaping can help protect New Jersey’s lakes from the impacts of human development, climate change, and harmful algal blooms.
Our lakes are increasingly at risk—and so are the communities that depend on them for recreation, drinking water, and wildlife habitat. Learn how simple, science-based landscaping solutions can make a real difference.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why harmful algal blooms are on the rise in NJ lakes
- How climate change and development accelerate water quality issues
- How green infrastructure and native landscaping can reduce polluted runoff
- What resources are available for both homeowners and municipalities
- How to qualify for rebates if you live on or near eligible lakes in the Highlands or Pinelands
This program is funded by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and resources are only available through the end of 2025.
