We are working closely with the Cross Creek Homeowner’s Association (HOA) and the Deline HOA in Beaverton to enhance the greenspaces surrounding the tributaryTributary A river or stream flowing into a larger body of water. that flows through their neighborhood. We’ve removed invasive species clogging the waterway, helped the community draft a landscape design, and planted native trees and shrubs to create wildlife habitat. This work is part of a larger restoration effort that includes the natural spaces along Butternut Creek.
