On Monday, June 1st, we joined NRCS staff from Dickson, Montgomery, Hickman, and Humphreys Counties for a multi-county roundtable meeting hosted at the Michael Burns farm. Landowners and producers from each of the participating counties were part of the discussion. Cheatham County was represented by Michael Burns, James DeLanis, and Darwin Newton. Together, we covered streambank stabilization needs, sinkhole concerns, riparian forest buffers, and other resource issues across our region.
Lunch was provided by Cheatham County SWCD and Dickson County SWCD, and we appreciate everyone who took time out of their day to participate. Thank you to all who attended and contributed to these important conversations.
