Activities

Join Heron Habitat Helpers as we continue restoring habitat for urban wildlife in Seattle's Kiwanis Memorial Preserve! Located near the west end of the ship canal, Kiwanis ravine is home to numerous bird species, amphibians, mountain beavers, and other wildlife, and it's an important green buffer for the great blue heron nesting colony at the Ballard Locks. We will be weeding out invasive plants using hand tools and spreading woodchip mulch to help natives we've planted get established.

What to Bring

Wear clothes and shoes you can get muddy and snagged; long sleeves and long pants will protect you from nettle stings, and woven fabric is better than knits or fleece. Layers and a raincoat depending on the weather--we work rain or shine. Gloves and tools will be provided.

Where to Meet

3330 W Commodore Way, the Commodore Park parking lot, at the west end. It's just west of the Ballard Locks on the south side of the ship canal.
