Bluegrass PRIDE works to clean and protect
streams and waterways throughout 18 counties in Central Kentucky.
When planted next to streams and waterways,
trees provide a buffer that can help prevent litter and pollutants from
reaching the water.
Students watch as Bluegrass
PRIDE Environmental Educator Carol Bradford teaches a lesson on water
quality.
A team of volunteers works to identify
macroinvertebrates as part of a Bluegrass PRIDE water activity.
Grass should be allowed to grow at the edge of
waterways to provide a barrier for pollutants.
As part of a summer project, a group
of Wilmore children learn about water quality and use that information to
teach others the importance of maintaining Central Kentucky’s streams and
waterways.
