Join us to help maintain native plant and rain gardens around our office. CRWC currently has three rain gardens and two native plant gardens that we need help maintaining.

Help us fight the invasion of our watershed! On Oct. 18 and Nov. 15 from 10 AM - noon, we're taking the fight to Murphy Park and the CRWC office to remove invasives like buckthorn and honeysuckle.
