Sustainable Eden Prairie is an ongoing effort focusing on education and implementation of sustainable practices to protect the environment and natural resources our community enjoys.

Building upon the success of the 20-40-15 initiative, the City is leading by example and providing a foundation for residents and businesses to carry out sustainable practices in four areas — energy, landscape, waste and water.

Shoreline Restoration & Maintenance Workshop

Is your shoreline eroding, unsightly or seem to be a goose magnet? Did the excessive spring rains last year take a toll? Or are you interested in learning simple tools for managing and maintaining your shore?

Join us at this free Shoreline Restoration and Maintenance Workshop to learn how to improve water quality, reduce erosion and beautify your property using native plants, simple installation techniques and smart planning for easier long-term maintenance.

Topics include:

  • How to evaluate your current shoreline
  • Planning for changing water levels
  • Project design and implementation
  • Dealing with invasive species
  • Plant selection

Bring your questions and we will supply resources and snacks.

This workshop is presented in partnership by the City of Eden Prairie, Riley Purgatory Bluff Creek Watershed District, Nine Mile Creek Watershed District, Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and Carver County Soil & Water Conservation District.
