SUMMARY:Two FREE mini “Growing Green for the Yuba” workshops 10/19/1

DESCRIPTION:Interested in learning more about environmentally responsibl
 e cannabis cultivation?&nbsp\; SYRCL is hosting two FREE mini “Growing
  Green for the Yuba” workshops. \n\n\n\nJoin us on Thursday\, October 
 19 for "Looking Toward Compliance: Water Catchment for a Healthy Yuba."&
 nbsp\; Karuna Warren\, local environmental engineer with WaterNow\, will
  offer sound advice on best management practices and provide accessible 
 solutions for rainwater harvest\, usage\, storage and the compliance pro
 cess.\n\n\n\nThe environmental impacts of unregulated\, large-scale cann
 abis cultivation are real. The overuse of chemical fertilizers\, pestici
 des and herbicides pollutes the water and poisons wildlife. Illegal wate
 r diversions result in dry creeks. Deforested and poorly graded land dam
 ages habitat for native fish and wildlife. So-called “trespass grows�
 � on public lands wreak havoc on the landscape.\n\n\n\n“We are committ
 ed to providing information and educational resources about the cumulati
 ve impact of cannabis cultivation across our watershed. By highlighting 
 accessible practices to cultivators\, we hope that we can all work toget
 her to protect the river\,” said Rachel Hutchinson\, SYRCL’s River S
 cience Director.\n\n\n\nSYRCL’s vision is that people will see that we
 ll-regulated agriculture – which is what cannabis cultivation could be
  – should not harm water quality\, fish and wildlife. By addressing th
 e sustainable cultivation issue through collaborative leadership\, scien
 ce\, stewardship and education\, we can educate each other to ensure can
 nabis is grown in an environmentally responsible and sustainable way.\n\
