A private landowner engaged RES to create a native wetland and prairie as a component of a wetland bank. The region had previously undergone agricultural cycles for decades, featuring a small grassy section in the center. Following tile breaking, outflow construction, and grading operations, RES installed native seed and plants. Management began immediately after installation. The site is now well established in all eco zones and dominated by native species. Wildlife of all types are abundant year-round and credits are now being released and sold.
