Daybreak Community & Land TendingOctober 30, 11am-3pm @ Daybreak Star We invite you to join us in tending the land at Daybreak Star Cultural Center. These gatherings are a return—to land, to care, and to being in right relationship with one another. Guided by Indigenous leadership at the United Indians of All Tribes Foundation, we come together to practice food sovereignty, cultural memory, and collective care in ways that are grounded, relational, and real. This season, we are tending the Forest Garden, a living space that supports elders, youth, and Indigenous-centered community programs while growing a future rooted in reciprocity, responsibility, and long-term care. All ages are welcome. You’re invited to come move your body, tend the land, and be in community—whether you stay for a couple of hours or the full day. Together, we’ll engage in hands-on care of the land through planting, weeding, harvesting, and seasonal projects, while also making space for connection, learning, and shared reflection. If you’re looking for a place to show up, build relationships, and grow something lasting, this is a space to gather, care for the land, and imagine what’s possible—together. All ages OK more |

Magnuson ReforestationOctober 30, 9:30am-12:30pm @ Warren G. Magnuson Park Help improve habitat and create replacement forest on a formerly denuded navy airfield. (Above photo taken in Navy era). The aim is to create healthy forest habitat and increase beneficial ecosystem services including provision of human enjoyment and health. It is also an opportunity to enjoy nature and learn a bit about native plants while doing satisfying work. Work is most likely to include removing invasive plants like ivy, Canada thistle, and blackberry but may also include other tasks such as distributing wood chip mulch. Because the work may be beyond capability of youth below high school age, please get the leader’s permission before registering if younger. more |

Rooted in Reciprocity (DNR sponsored)October 31, 10am-12:30pm @ Seward Park Caring for the land that cares for us. The land around us has been scarred by pollution, carved over by development, and fragmented by development expansion. To live in reciprocity means to give back, to tend, and to restore what has been lost. Are you in good relations with the land? By stepping into this work, we have the chance to give back, repair habitats, support native wildlife, and strengthen our connection to the Land. Restoration is our way of returning care to the land that has long sustained us. Join us at Seward Park Audubon Center for Root in Reciprocity: Tend Together. Together, we’ll be engaging in either the removal and repurpose of introduced species, plant native flora, and restore habitats that sustain birds, pollinators, and the broader ecosystem. All tools, guidance, and materials are provided, just bring your curiosity, care, and willingness to get your hands in the soil. Funding for this project provided by the USDA Forest Service, Urban and Community Forestry Program in partnership with State of Washington Department of Natural Resources, Urban and Community Forestry Program. more |

Tree Planting the Forest EdgeOctober 31, 9:30am-12:30pm @ Discovery Park "The best day to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the second best time is now." We have a bunch of evergreen trees and some shrubs that will be re-establishing the forest edge where blackberries once claimed the territory. The area is currently grassland so we'll be removing the grass, amending the soil with woodchips and providing a nice mulch ring to hold the moisture in. more |
