Southern Alberta depends on irrigation and we withdraw loads of water from the Oldman for agriculture. Agriculture provides 80% of our economy! ....But is the water going to Frankenpotatoes?!
The “Saskatchewan Sisters,” Sydney and Rebekkah, look back and reflect on their summer working as Outreach Assistants in the Oldman watershed.
Outreach Assistants Rebekkah and Sydney share their favourite things about the watershed, what gives them the “warm fuzzies,” and why watershed people are the best!
An adventurous gopher tapes some moose antlers on his head, hops in a canoe, and heads out to explore his watershed - all the way to the sea! Outreach Assistants Rebekkah and Sydney play and review the board game, “Moopher’s Amazing Journey to the Sea.”
Managers are getting creative when it comes to fighting back against invasive weeds. Outreach Assistants Sydney and Rebekkah share some of the innovative methods used in our watershed that they learned about on the South West Invasive Managers (SWIM) tour in July 2019.
