For landowners
We’re here to help. Follow the links below for information that will help you learn about your wetland and how to care for it, and that will connect you with resources that can help you achieve your goals.

Learn about your wetland
Your experience as a landowner gives you first-hand knowledge of your land and water, including wetlands. Because wetlands are diverse, there’s no one way to care for a wetland. We’ve outlined three steps you can take to get to know whether you have a wetland, what type of wetland you have, and how you can keep it healthy.

Care for your wetland
As a landowner, you want to keep your land and water healthy. But how can you care for your wetlands? We’ve outlined four steps you can take to help you determine the care it needs.
