Come join the ASLA tour of the City of Austin’s Water Quality Protection Land Onion Creek Property on May 22nd, and learn about the history of the WQPL’s land management strategies to ensure efficient and clean aquifer recharge!
This tour will provide attendees with the “nuts and bolts” of practices including invasive species maintenance, combating woody species encroachment, prescribed fire, native plant species monitoring, and grassland/savanna restoration. The intent is to provide a robust, onsite discussion of best management practices necessary to sustain biodiverse landscapes that are increasingly being used by cities, states, and other entities to provide essential ecosystem services. This tour will be a unique opportunity for landscape architects to better understand necessary measures post design development.
