Hansen Creek is a large creek that flows south from Lyman Hill to the Skagit River, just east of Sedro-Woolley. It is a major feature of the grounds at the former Northern State Hospital, now home to the SWIFT Center and Northern State Recreation Area.
Riverfront Park is a 35-acre property situated at the banks of the lower main stem of the Skagit River in south Sedro-Woolley. The park was developed in 1984 and now includes a dog park, several sports fields, and a place for RV’s and campers to settle in for the night.
SFEG’s native plant nursery sprouted from humble beginnings way back in the 1990s, on borrowed land at the Northern State Campus with help from the Cascades Job Corps program headquartered there. Thousands of donated or cheaply acquired trees and shrubs were heeled in to await planting at restoration sites.
