How to Control Erosion

Erosion happens when rain and wind wash and blow away the earth’s topsoil, making it impossible for trees and plants to grow and leading to mudslides and clogged waterways. Erosion can turn once healthy, vibrant land into arid, lifeless terrain. It’s a common occurrence at construction sites and other areas where the land has been disturbed. The best way to control erosion is to restore the land to its natural state by planting groundcover and trees, which hold the soil together with their roots and prevent it from washing away. See Step 1 and beyond to learn how to assess your land and use the right control techniques to prevent it from eroding.
