Protect our watershed - learn and do
The Tualatin watershed is crucial to our community's well-being. Learn more about the conservation and restoration activities of the past and present that are ensuring the health of our watershed. Pick an action from the following options:
1) Switch to organic or slow-release fertilizers,
2) Replace a non-permeable surface with a permeable one,
3) Always pick up after pets (if you notice a location, park, or greenspace with a pet waste problem, find a way to improve the disposal infrastructure),
4) Plant tough/hardy plants that require little or no extra water/fertilizer,
5) Use roof water or greywater in the garden instead of having it run directly to the street or down the drain.
