Activities

This event is a little bit of everything. Seattle Forest Week, workshop, show and tell, and some hands-on forest tending.

The focus of this workshop is to share what we know about the factors for successful forest planting and how to do it with the least amount of resources, labor, and brown crispy plants.

We will also show you our plant nursery and learn the basics of starting and tending one. This will be the spot where we do our hands-on portion of the workshop.

Planting trees is the easy part. The hard part is raising them 🌱👶

This event is for everyone, and we especially call in current forest stewards and seasoned volunteers. We are eager to build a richer community of stewards with knowledge share!

The Trillium community has been tending forest and creek with an emphasis on building a community of stewards who is in a living, attuned relationship with the land and with each other.

We move slow. We cultivate a sense of place. And we are building skills and deepening ecological literacy. And we love to share meals!

We feel clarity about the importance of this frame and we are eager to share what have been learning so far 💚
