From the air we breathe to the water we drink, our health is directly connected to the world around us. Taking time to protect and preserve our environment isn’t just good for the earth; it’s essential for our own well-being and for future generations. Whether it’s reducing waste, supporting local agriculture, spending time outdoors, or simply being more mindful of our impact, every effort matters.
Let’s continue to take care of Highland and the state of Arkansas to keep her the Natural State — not just today, but every day.

We understand it rained a little and there is more to come over the next couple days! Please understand that the rain DOES NOT cancel the burn ban. Tickets will still be issued for illegal burning!!! We need several inches of rain to bring us out of extreme fire danger.

We have all seen them around so let be proactive and not invite them to our homes!

Spring is a time to be extra BearWise. Now is the time to take action to discourage hungry bears from paying you a springtime visit. BearWise has tips for you to make it a BearWise spring.

- Secure garbage and recylces. Store trash and recyling in a sturdy building or bear-resistant container until the morning of pick up.

- Take down bird feeders. If you’re still feeding birds, you could soon find something big, furry and hungry ripping down your feeder. So many calories, so easy to get at. When you take down your feeders, remember to lock up or bring inside any bird seed or other treats you’ve been storing outside.

– Bring in all pet food. Leaving pet food outside where bears can see or smell it is an invitation that can be hard for a hungry bear to resist. Feed pets indoors if at all possible. If you must feed them outside, feed in single portions only, remove bowls and food after feeding and store pet food inside in a secure location.

- Help out your neighbors and community. Share BearWise resources with your community. Visit the BearWise store to download free information fact sheets (including the checklist: How BearWise Are You?) or order handy door hangers and magnets that make house calls for you.
