  • Pictures, please!

    We want to see your BMPs! Send us a snapshot or two of the BMPs you installed—this can be a landscape shot, a picture of the kids next to the tree you planted, before/during/after installation pictures, or creative group photos taken while planting or installing your BMP. (We will not share your photos without your permission.)

    If you are able to use a smartphone to take pictures, we encourage you to enable location services and turn on location tagging in the camera app's settings prior to taking the pictures of your BMPs. This will attach a geocode to your picture that will help us correctly link the photo with your report.

    Pictures can be emailed to the Watershed BMP Specialist at bmp@cacaponinstitute.org or uploaded below.
