November is a month of mixed blessing for the Patriot Family. With a changing of the seasons and such amazing natural beauty, it has also become a not so gentle reminder of those who are no longer here to share it with. Today we pause to remember the original believer in the Patriot mission, the instiller of passion for the natural world, the most selfless man we’ve ever known - Clark Everette Brown, on his 60th Birthday. Clark’s legacy of compassion is something we often have trouble putting into words. His biography that hangs over “Clark’s Local Library” at his beloved @chesapeakefarmhouse only begins to tell the story of such an amazing man. His love of natural resources and the local area will live on in all those he has inspired with his passion. Happy Birthday Clarky, you are missed. #patriotnaturalresources #clarkbrown #gonetoosoon #stewardship #potomacriver #sugarloafmountain #themountainsarecallingandimustgo
Ever Vigilant. A cool capture this frosty Sunday morning in Montgomery County’s Ag Reserve as a Bald Eagle sits watch over agricultural fields while the sun rises against an old bank barn. #stewardship #sunrise #baldeagle #bankbarn #naturalresources #naturalresourcemanagement #landmanagement #montgomerycountymd #mdinfocus
Cover, water & food, that’s the recipe for a healthy & happy wild turkey population. On the Patriot Proving Grounds, & other client properties, one of the first recommendations is always a field border of transitional habitat and perennial food sources. This area under “The drip line” of bordering trees is a proven under performer of agricultural yields and most times doesn’t cover the cost of agricultural inputs (seed, fertilizer, etc). Instead, the area is placed in perennial plants that improve runoff water quality, creates a year round food source for wildlife, reduces crop damage and allows for better property access. These borders coupled with early successional edge habitat can create an awesome environment to boost turkey populations. #landmanagement #naturalresourcemanagement #wildturkey #stewardship #naturalresources #agriculture #nwtf #wildlifemanagement #landstewardship
Born from necessity, @patriotpastures is our own take on regenerative farming which operates on the “Patriot Proving Grounds”, an 1100 acre example of what can happen when regenerative agriculture, responsible natural resource management and recreational land uses work together towards a common goal. It’s been a journey to say the least, but one we’d gladly embark on again. As they say, a journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step... #Repost @patriotpastures ・・・ Saturday’s are for the boys! Although there won’t be much harvesting today thanks to the rain we love this picture too much not to share. Patriot Pastures is a first generation farming venture from @patriotnaturalresources , but maybe, just maybe, the next generation will gladly take the helm when the time comes, boys & girls alike! Did you know “According to the U.S. Labor Department, the average age of farmers and ranchers is 58. This is not because farmers are among America's oldest workers – their average age has been growing rapidly for approximately 30 years, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Census of Agriculture.” Although the entry point to agriculture is high and sometimes unconventional routes must be taken, we at Patriot Pastures are proud to be a part of lowering that average! #marylandyoungfarmers #patriotpastures #agriculture #johndeere #harvester #nongmo #soybeans #corn #maryland #montgomerycountymd #teachthemyoung #landstewardship
Blue sky’s and clear waters. Not a bad scene for a seek & destroy mission on invasive Phragmites. #landmanagement #landstewardship #waterquality #naturalresources #invasivespecies #wetlands #rivers #chesapeakebay #stewardship
After record rain falls this year we, like many others in the “working outside business”, are a little behind but slowly and surely we are playing catch-up. Here are some before and after shots of fall maintenance on some well established reforestation sites. It’s preferable to maintain these sites at least twice annually as trees establish. Crews will also periodically remove tree protection as the trees mature and remove plastic debris from the sites. #landstewardship #naturalresourcemanagement #reforestation #waterquality #planttrees #landmanagement #naturalresources #trees #propertymanagement
What a year it has been for working outside. Rain, rain and more rain plus more on the way. Be careful out there everyone. #Repost @eshorelandc ・・・ The #EasternShore is already saturated. #Prepare as best you can for all of the additional rain headed our way. #NOAA #extremeweather #nationalpreparednessmonth #sealevelrise #maryland #hurricaneflorence
Before & After: Here is a recently completed stormwater facility rehab for a client. The facility was not functioning properly & needed repair. Water was holding in an area that should be draining dry as a natural percolating filter, runoff sediment had clogged the piping system and it was discovered after initial investigation that the original construction and pipe grade angle was inadequate for proper function. Patriot crews completed sediment removal, piping replacement and new filter media installation. The facility is back in working order and that’s a win for the Bay. #propertymanagement #naturalresourcemanagement #stormwatermanagement #waterquality #landstewardship #chesapeakebay
