Wetland Restoration Project Featured in WYSO Report
A recent news story by WYSO highlights the transformation of Landen-Deerfield Park’s former three-acre pond into a restored stream and wetland. The nearly $1 million project, supported by H2Ohio and American Rescue Plan Act funding, is designed to improve water quality, reduce downstream flooding risks, restore native habitat, and benefit the Little Miami River watershed. The story looks at how quickly wildlife has returned to the area and how visitors are responding to the park’s new trails, native plantings, nature-play features, and smaller fishing pond.
