  3. Chehalis River Knotweed Treatments

    Chehalis Knotweed Treatments have begun! After surveying Rock and Halfway Creek tributaries, the Lewis County Noxious Weed Control team has started Knotweed treatments in Pe Ell. If you have any questions about knotweed control or the long term treatment plan, please reach out to us at Weeds@Lewiscountywa.gov. Because of its ability to easily spread downstream, we must start our efforts at the tributaries of the headwaters of the Chehalis river.

  6. Raise Your Own Healthy Food - April 2019

    With every passing year, we move further away from the time when people grew most of the food their families ate. Our busy, modern lives and more compact living conditions have drawn us away from the soil and into supermarkets. How many people today even know the taste of a tomato, cucumber, or carrot picked ripe and eaten right there in the garden? If you don’t, you’re missing out on a real treat. More
