The Brainerd Lakes Area, with its stunning natural beauty, abundant lakes, and rolling terrain, is a gem in central Minnesota. However, the region’s unique landscape and climate—marked by heavy rainfall, snowmelt, and sandy soils—can make erosion a significant concern for homeowners, businesses, and property developers. Erosion not only threatens property value but can also harm local water quality by washing sediment into lakes and rivers. Fortunately, with the right erosion control practices, you can protect your land from these hazards.
