Watershed Program

The TRWD watershed program strives to educate and inform local stakeholders and the public about their watershed and steps that can be taken to help improve and protect water quality.

Whether the audience includes school children or adults, urban dwellers or farmers, education is a cornerstone of water quality protection and essential for successful watershed planning. The program provides information about urban stormwater management, agricultural conservation practices, and basic watershed concepts.

Urban Stormwater Management

Education about reducing stormwater runoff is key to protecting watersheds and water quality. The TRWD Rainscapes, Airfield Falls Conservation Park, and other demo projects showcase landscaping techniques that conserve water and protect water quality. Located on the TRWD main campus in Fort Worth, the Rainscapes are open for self-guided tours M-F 8am-5pm, or by appointment.

Agricultural Conservation Practices

TRWD encourages and supports responsible agriculture and good land stewardship by working closely with local Soil and Water Conservation Districts, state and federal entities, industries and nonprofit organizations.

Technical assistance, workshops, and demonstration projects help deliver information, resources, and new technology to agricultural producers throughout our watersheds.

An Educational Roadshow

Here’s a virtual lesson using our stream trailer, one of several hands-on, mobile educational experiences that we use to teach students about our water resources. It’s a great way to provide young learners an interactive experience to teach them about watersheds, how we impact them, and about the actions we can take to protect them. We all live in a watershed and the things we do on land — good and bad — have an effect on our drinking water supplies. Being good stewards of our water resources helps ensure that we’ll have access to clean drinking water for years to come.

Community Outreach

Enriching Communities

TRWD supports youth and adult education as a means to develop and support well‐informed stakeholders for ongoing environmental sustainability. The district delivers interactive learning experiences directly as well as through partnerships with local organizations.
