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 Seattle Parks and Recreations Natural Area Crew 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.

All ages OK

What to Bring

Come dressed for the weather (rain or shine) in clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes (rubber boots, hiking shoes or boots), long sleeves, long pants, warm layers and rain jacket. We'll have tools and gloves for you to use, as well as a mid-morning snack. Help reduce waste by bringing your own refillable water bottle if you have one!

Where to Meet

Meet in the grassy area just east of the parking lot at Herring's House.

Where to Park

There is a parking lot at Herring's House, and if that is full when you arrive, you may find parking at həʔapus Village Park & Shoreline Habitat just south of Herring's House. Given the limited parking space in the area we highly suggest carpooling.
