Episode 6
This month on Conservation Starters, we're joined by TCD staff, Nora Carman-White, Karin Strelioff, and Marguerite Abplanalp. Together, we sit down to answer our listener's questions! We break down a few of the best ways to create healthy salmon habitat on streamside property, how to successfully make compost, and when it's the right decision to get your soil tested. We also discuss the answers to a few of our most frequently asked questions like, "How does TCD's financial assistance program work?" and "I just moved to Thurston County, where do I begin ?". This episode is a run-down of the many ways TCD is here to help YOU! Tune in to learn more.
