Congratulations to our Education and Outreach Coordinator, Grace Daughtrey, on becoming a Certified Stream Monitor through Virginia Save Our Streams!

With this certification, Grace can help coordinate stream monitoring efforts throughout our region to identify potential pollution concerns, collect valuable water quality data, and support healthy local waterways.

Interested in getting involved? We're looking for volunteers and suggestions for streams that may benefit from monitoring in Essex, King and Queen, and King William counties. Reach out to Grace at [email protected] to learn more.

A special thank you to Stacey Sovick and Anna Moreau with Hanover-Caroline SWCD for leading the training!

Three Rivers SWCD had a great time yesterday at the Summer Reading Challenge Kickoff Party at Essex Public Library! This yearā€™s theme, ā€œUnearth a Story,ā€ encourages readers to explore new ideas through books, programs, and local experiences.

We brought our interactive soil tent, and community members tested their knowledge of soil, water, and wildlife by spinning our trivia wheel. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn and have fun with us!

Please join us in welcoming Jackie Kay to the Three Rivers SWCD team as our Agricultural Administrative Assistant!

Hereā€™s a little bit about Jackie:

ā€œHi, Iā€™m Jackie Kay! Iā€™m excited to be joining the agriculture industry and eager to learn as much as I can along the way. I enjoy being part of a team and taking on new challenges. When Iā€™m not working, youā€™ll usually find me spending time with my amazing husband and our sweet dog, riding motorcycles, or curled up with a good book.ā€
