Rain Garden Tour
What a treat it was to walk together through the Northwest and Bayside Neighborhoods of Everett to view rain gardens in person. Apryl Hynes from the city led the tour and we visited around 10 rain gardens. Unfortunately, the smoke was fairly thick so some people were unable to attend. If you want to receive a map with some of those gardens we toured, please email Apryl at ahynes@everettwa.gov.
