Slopes to the northeast are

preferred for maximum
sunlight, warmth and
protection from wind.
A wetland is a place where
the land is covered by
water, either salt, fresh or
somewhere in between.
A drainage line won't
intercept and filter farm
chemical and nutrient run-
off.
Riparian areas prevent
drift and movement of
sprays, dust, pests, and
noise to adjoining areas.
Buffer zones are left in place
to protect sensitive
environmental areas and
provide a habitat/sanctuary
for wildlife.
