HERITAGE RESOURCE CENTRE

SHORELINE AWARENESS

Perhaps the most important area of our waterways is the shoreline. Almost all aquatic life is born, raised and fed in the area where land and water meet. The Muskoka Heritage Foundation promotes the conservation of this very important area.

The resource centre has publications available to the public that focus on shorelines.
