This results in a wide variety of geographic ecosystems within the watershed, including creeks, rivers, farmland, mountains, forests, and residential areas primarily near Santa Clarita. This watershed is the ancestral home of the Tataviam people. 

I was raised by parents who were passionate about environmentalism, and going through life I realized that so many people didn’t have the same education. I got my masters degree in sustainability and started educating communities with Tree People. I think it’s vital to ask the people who live in the watershed what are the most important issues that they experience in their daily lives. Then together, we can figure out what Safe, Clean Water projects can help meet those needs.

It’s hard to choose a favorite place, but I think it would have to be the Santa Clara River.
