About this listen

When the Freeman family decided to restore a damaged creek in Washington's Olympic Peninsula - to transform it from a drainage ditch into a stream that could again nurture salmon - they knew the task would be formidable and the rewards plentiful.

In Saving Tarboo Creek, Scott Freeman artfully blends his family's story with powerful universal lessons about how we can all live more constructive, fulfilling, and natural lives by engaging with the land rather than exploiting it. Equal parts heartfelt and empowering, this book explores how we can all make a difference one choice at a time.

Loved It

I live about 35 minutes from Tarboo Creek, on my own little 5 acre watershed, just above Grover’s Creek. I found the story inspiring.

Liked that it was a local story

Tarboo creek is basically in my backyard. I read the book before I listened to it. The narrator had the most annoying nasally voice and mispronounce worlds. I do like the story very much and believe that it is important to do my best to save the environment. I think that maybe it was better as a book than as a listening experience.

I feel browbeating happening

I only finished due to ocd. The core was interesting, packed in a majority of lecture.
