SUMMARY:PA Environment Digest Blog: Master Watershed Steward Watershed-Friendly Native Plant Kit Sale
DESCRIPTION:Penn State Extension Master Watershed Steward Program is now accepting orders for their 2024 Watershed-Friendly Native Plant Kit Sale through June 18 or until sold out.\nPick your preferred kit online and select the most convenient curbside fall pickup location from 17 sites across the state. \nProceeds from the Watershed-Friendly Native Plant Kits will support the Master Watershed Steward program providing volunteer-driven education and restoration work in that region. \nEach of the Watershed-Friendly kits are designed to help you incorporate more native plants into your property for habitat creation\, stormwater management\, pollutant reduction\, and other positive ecological services.\nReducing stormwater runoff\, reducing water pollution\, conserving water\, and supporting wildlife and pollinators are critical elements of healthy watershed-friendly properties and the focus areas of the Penn State Extension Master Watershed Steward Watershed-Friendly certification\, a collaboration with Nurture Nature Center. \nNative plants are woven throughout the certification criteria because of all the benefits that native plant gardens can provide.\nKits are composed of plant plugs from carefully selected species grown by Kind Earth Growers using locally collected open-source pollinated seeds and 50% peat-free growing media. \nPlant plugs are smaller than what is typically found in nurseries\, allowing for easier transportation and planting within existing vegetation. \nThe plugs have healthy root systems which will establish this fall so that your plants can flourish next growing season.\nClick Here to order and for all the details.

SUMMARY:EPA Water Affordability Needs Assessment
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join EPA for a public listening session on water affordability needs for households and utilities. Water affordability is a growing issue that impacts millions of households throughout the United States. Low-income households are struggling to pay their water bills\, and some utilities also struggle to meet rising costs for operations and maintenance and upgrading aging infrastructure.\nA cornerstone of EPA’s work to address water affordability will be the development of a Water Affordability Needs Assessment and Report to Congress. The report will characterize the extent and scope of water burden impacts to households and utilities across the country.\nThis listening session will focus on hearing from communities\, utilities and advocacy groups who have not yet been involved in the report’s development. We invite you to share your experiences\, perspectives\, and ideas regarding these questions: \nHow are people in your community impacted by water affordability challenges?\nWhat recommendations do you have for how EPA can support communities where households struggle with water bills?\nWhat do you think is important for EPA to understand about water affordability? \nYour feedback is crucial as we gather input that will help inform the Report to Congress. Please join us on June 3\, 2024\, from 1 – 3pm EDT!\nRegister for the listening session – HERE

SUMMARY:Webinar - Planting for the Future: Native Plants\, Green Jobs\, and Equitable Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION: \nLandscapes planted with native\, locally-adapted plants have wide-ranging benefits including ecosystem connectivity\, soil health\, water infiltration\, and more. As adoption of native\, locally-adapted landscaping grows nationwide\, the availability of suitable seed\, plant starts\, and skilled\, knowledgeable tradespeople to plan\, install\, and maintain these landscapes presents an obstacle. At the same time\, harmful effects of climate change are already impacting communities\, often hitting hardest for those already impacted by social and environmental inequities. In this webinar\, convened speakers will discuss the growing need for skilled workers to grow\, plant\, and maintain native and rewilded landscapes; opportunities to work toward equity in frontline communities through workforce development and livable wage careers; climate resilience\, disaster preparedness\, and fostering a “deep bench” of local knowledge and skillsets; and more.\nClick here to register
