What is a watershed?
A watershed is an area of land that drains into a common body of water. Everyone lives in a watershed. When a drop of rain falls on your house, that drop eventually makes it to a stream, putting your home in that stream's watershed. Watersheds come in all sizes and there are watersheds within watersheds. Further, they cross township, county, state, and national boundaries.
