You are invited to join the Quivira Coalition for a FREE Riparian & Wildlife Habitat Restoration Workshop on Red Canyon Reserve, March 25-27.
This workshop is part of a New Mexico Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program Grant to improve breeding and winter habitat for a diverse group of wildlife species by enhancing riparian wetland areas and increasing the distribution and availability of permanent and fully assessable water sources. These enhancements will create a wildlife corridor that will allow species to travel to and from adjacent public and private lands.
The top priority for the workshop will be the installation of four wildlife drinkers at various locations. Participants will help install over 5,000 feet of “ground level” pipe to and from the well tanks and drinkers.
Red Canyon Reserve is a 45 minute drive from Socorro just off Interstate I-25 and State Road 107. Project coordinators include Steve Carson of Rangeland Hands, Inc., Cullen Hallmark and Michael Bain.
