During the summer, Montana’s locally led watershed groups bring people together to tackle some of the biggest challenges we face: drought; reduced streamflows and warming waters; invasive species; increased wildfire activity; and growing recreational use of our lands and waterways, to name just a few.
Using what we have termed the Watershed Approach to conservation (collaborative, consensus-based), these organizations are finding common ground across political and other divides to make a sustainable difference for our natural resources and the communities that rely on them.
We invite you to connect with these groups and their vital work from June through September each year during the Montana Watershed Coordination Council’s (MWCC) #WatershedSummer campaign on Instagram and Facebook. We will highlight different local watershed groups from across the state, from Flathead Lake to the Musselshell River and beyond.
