The San Pablo Watershed Neighbors Education & Restoration Society
Summer Nature Walks start June 13!  We're introducing a new series this summer, geared toward helping you in your garden.  ____________________________________________________ SPAWNERS Creek Restoration Documentary This video documents a 5-year restoration project that SPAWNERS did with the East Bay Municipal Utility District. Cleaning, bank-stabilization, and planting projects on Appian and Wilkie Creeks were done with the help of community volunteers and students from De Anza High School as well as the local Boys & Girls Club. This video was produced by Kirston Koths of Oak Leaf Studios, and is best enjoyed in 1080p, stereo. - Read about our work over the last 15 years here. ___________________________________________________ Who is SPAWNERS?
