Water Matters, part 6
Lewis Creek Association, Responsible Growth Hinesburg, and the Hinesburg Planning Commission hosted “Local Water Quality Matters: Individual Action for the Greater Good” on November 7, 2019. Everyone enjoyed exploring the stream table, and learning from Jessica Louisos about steps we can take to improve our local roads to improve water quality.
