Activities

Work with a team of UW restoration ecology students to restore what had been a denuded naval air station to healthy habitat which will increase human well being.and ecosystem services. (We'll be working where some of the runways shown in the listing photo once were).

Work will include moving and sprading wood chip mulch and removing invasive ivy and small diameter invasive trees,

This event is also an opportunity for participants to enjoy nature and learn a bit about plants while doing satisfying work.

Those signing up should be high school age or older, unless given leader approval. (Some but not all younger youth would be capable of the work.)
