The Adopt A Stream Foundation
One of the most outstanding efforts in our community, the goal of the Adopt A Stream Foundation is to educate persons to care for and protect the streams and waterways of their watershed. Housed at 600 128th St. SE,Everett, behind McCullom Park and the Snohomish County Master Gardeners, this Northwest Stream Center offers educational seminars, lectures on native flora and fauna, walks along the North Creek, and a trout viewing stream. Tom Murdoch, the Foundation leader and inspiration, has gathered an enthusiastic support team that constantly encourages visitors to become members and supporters of their environmental effort. They are available at www.adopt-a-stream.org or www.streamkeeper.org.
