Long term partnerships yield high end results: Beginning in 2018, the Baltimore County Soil Conservation District partnered with Roseda Farms and Ecotone to develop an ecological restoration project utilizing sustainable agricultural best management practices. The practices shown were installed and designed to improve water quality and habitat conditions while seamlessly maintaining agricultural operations and productivity. Thank you to our project partners at the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, Baltimore County Soil Conservation District, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and most importantly Roseda Farms who made this project possible

Here is compelling evidence that ecological restoration and productive agriculture are not mutually exclusive. In 2015 Ecotone restored North Stirrup Run within an active cattle farm. Using only native materials, the project has restored water quality and ecological function to a tributary to Deer Creek while maintaining agricultural productivity. Thank you to our project partners at the Maryland Department of Natural Resources and Harford Soil Conservation District. Vital partnerships make projects like this possible!

Typically during stream restoration, compaction of the soil is neglected due to trying to achieve specific grades for floodplain width, bench height, and other stream bank factors. The compacted soil which is left behind after restoration does not provide the best growing environment for trees and other plant life planted along the stream banks. By breaking up the compacted soil once the banks have been constructed to grade, it creates a much healthier growing environment. Our good friends Rich and Mark will guide you through a simple and efficient way of breaking up compacted soil which you can use to strengthen your restoration project!

Overview of our company philosophy in the words of our founder, Scott McGill. We are an ecological restoration company focused on helping build a world in which the natural environment and humankind thrive. At Ecotone, we like to think like a mountain. What that means is to have a complete appreciation for the profound interconnectedness of the elements in the ecosystems. As our teams work on restoration projects - we consider the holistic impact on our environment. We think of this as an ecological exercise using the intricate web of the natural environment rather than thinking as an isolated individual.
We invite you to join us in our journey and be part of the solution to restore the environment.
