Sweetwater Creek runs through the main property and next to the studio. Inspired by the beaver population reclaiming the damaged drainage and repairing the hydraulics of the creek, we have joined in the efforts. Key parts of the creek have now been engineered to slow down the flow water and speed up restoration. Additionally we have planted thousands of native plants to increase the heath of the riparian ecosystem. Over the next 10 years we expect to see the creek return back to a natural course at the valley floor. During that time we get to observe the beaver population increase in health and move further up the creek, reclaiming habitat that was lost over years of previous mismanagement and trapping.
