Algona Wetland Preserve

The goal of this project is to bring together community members from Algona—and neighboring areas to:

• Learn about the City-owned wetland
• Contribute to a collective vision for its design and use
• Promote ongoing stewardship of this community asset

We aim to support the creation of a well-functioning wetland that is stewarded and appreciated by the entire Algona community for generations to come.

Project Overview

The goal of this project is to bring together community members from Algona—and its neighboring cities—to learn about the science of wetlands, build a collective vision for Algona’s wetland, and design an enhancement program to help guide the City as it works to turn the community’s vision into reality.

The project will include:

Environmental education opportunities for youth and adults
Community stakeholder discussions
A virtual design meeting open to all
