Native Wetlands
No items found.

Inspired by nostalgic memories of his upbringing, our client sought to honor his family's legacy by commissioning Aquatic Habitats to install a wetland at his retirement haven nestled in North Fork's wine country. Recreating the natural ponds of mid-century Israel, the wetland was thoughtfully constructed with a synthetic clay lining, and a 75-foot natural stream bed was introduced for essential water recirculation. Native wetland plantings were intentionally arranged to blend seamlessly with the property's scenic meadows and tranquil walking paths, paying homage to cherished childhood memories while fostering a thriving ecosystem and enhancing biodiversity.
