East Bank Wetlands West Bank Wetlands Garrard Creek |
Wetlands and Riparian Habitat A salmon-bearing creek winds through the bottomlands of Wild Thyme Farm. Reforesting riparian buffer zones and creating ponds and wetlands are ongoing projects to enhance the aquatic community. East Bank: The Eastern Wetlands An ongoing expression of landscape art, creating a variety of wetland environments. The farm's eastern watershed drains through the ravine in front of the farmhouse, passing under the driveway through a culvert before it enters the creek. West Bank: Kundalini Stream and the Pasture Ponds Turning a water problem into a beautiful landscape feature that benefits wildlife and keeps our waters clear. A small perennial stream drains the farm's western watershed, crossing 500 feet of flat pastureland before it enters a much larger creek.
Objective: The plan objective is to establish a riparian forest buffer along a portion of Garrard Creek. The Wild Thyme Farm is located on Garrard Creek, a tributary of the Chehalis River in Grays Harbor County, Washington. |
