Activities

Plant a forest and grow community! Help us create a healthier, happier, and greener Seattle by coming out to kick off planting Season on Green Seattle Day! From creating wildlife habitat, to combating climate change, and providing a place for residents to recreate: having a hand in Green Seattle Day is one of the best ways to give back to your neighbors, parks, and your local forest.



Join the fun with the Magnuson Park Forest Stewards and be one of hundreds of volunteers across the city planting native trees, shrubs, and groundcovers that will become the future forest of Seattle. All community members are welcome, and no experience is necessary! The event is family friendly and open to all ages.
This event is part of Seattle's Green Seattle Day planting events and the work is expected to be almost all planting although there is a slight chance of other work.

Youth below High School age should be accompanied by an adult to help ensure they follow directions and do good quality work
