Lower Sugar River Watershed Association The LSRWA is a nonprofit, grassroots organization formed in 2011 to serve as a public forum to advocate for protection of watershed natural resources.

The Lower Sugar River Watershed Association (LSRWA) is a non-profit, grassroots organization dedicated to empowering citizens with experience and knowledge to steward land and water resources in the Lower Sugar River Watershed. Formed in 2011, in partnership with its long established sister organization the Upper Sugar River Watershed Association (USRWA), LSRWA was created for people who care about and enjoy the Sugar River and the rich, productive landscapes of Southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. The rolling hills and valleys that surround the river and its tributary streams form our watershed and connect us to each other and to the land. The natural assets of our watershed—the deep agricultural soils, forest and wetland habitats, aquatic environments, and wildlife—sustain our lives, and are integral to our regional economy and culture. We believe these assets benefit from our watershed community’s collective stewardship, now and into the future. We all have a stake in abundant and high quality water resources!

Last week, our Field Station team and volunteers gathered at Three Waters Reserve to collect native plant seeds! 🌱💚

From spotted Joe-Pye w**d to smooth ironw**d, each seed collected helps support future native plantings and habitat restoration efforts. These small but important efforts play a big role in preserving native plant communities and supporting the wildlife that depends on them. 🌾

A big thank you to our Field Station team and volunteers for helping us continue this important conservation work!

Keep protecting! 🌿
