Forest buffer maintenance in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Staff from the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay perform maintenance on a riparian forest buffer that had been planted on the farm of Brian Eckman in Peach Bottom, Pa., on July 7, 2022. The crew straightened the tubes protecting the young trees and fixed stakes that had become loose or broken. “Tree maintenance isn’t just important, it's critical,” said Jim Kauffman, Pennsylvania Forests Project Coordinator for the Alliance. “Ninety percent of trees planted would die without maintenance.” (Photo by Caroline Grass/Chesapeake Bay Program)
