What can YOU do?

GET INVOLVED!

1.  Join a volunteer monitoring group like the Oklahoma Water Watch or Blue Thumb.  Visit our webpage about the joint trainings in the Grand Lake area.  If you are interested in attending a training in the future, please email us.

2.  Join the Oklahoma Master Gardeners.  The training to become a Master Gardener will include training on how to be a good steward of our water resources while creating beautiful landscapes.  The training in Delaware County will have a particular focus on clean water as a part of the CLEAR GRAND project.  You do not have to live in Delaware County to join this training or participate with the group.  Sign up for the next training in Delaware County!

3. Volunteer with some of our local gardening projects.  Want to help out with our demonstration gardens?  Contact Kevin Gustavson (918) 801-2150 or email Kevin at kevin.gustavson@conservation.ok.gov
