🌿 Greenseams® protects land and safeguards the future. 💧
When rain falls, wetlands, floodplains, and healthy soils act like giant natural sponges—soaking up and slowing down rainwater before it reaches homes, businesses, and roads.
For 25 years, MMSD's Greenseams® Program has protected these important natural areas across our region, helping reduce flooding while improving water quality and wildlife habitat. Today, we're seeing the long-term benefits of preserving 6,105 acres of land, which can store over 3.3 billion gallons of rain to protect our community.
MMSD works with The Conservation Fund and Pheasants Forever, two national nonprofit conservation organizations that help communities protect land and water resources to implement the Greenseams Program.
