We have adopted the creek that runs across our garden and adjacent to it. We officially have a Stream Team with the Missouri Department of Conservation. They also provide training for Water Quality Monitoring, to learn physical, chemical, and biological monitoring techniques and data collection. This information will help the Missouri Department of Natural Resources follow long-term trends in statewide water quality. Our next step is to complete a Stream Team Inventory. This is an evaluation process that documents stream conditions and uncovers the problems. It’s a way to assess the overall health of the creek and began to address its issues. Organizing litter pickups on and around the creek is one of the first next steps!
