Why This Day Matters Green Seattle Day is more than a volunteer event—it’s a celebration of community care, ecological justice, and Indigenous sovereignty. By coming together on October 25th, we honor the long arc of work that connects treaty rights, land defense, ecological restoration, and climate justice.

Their tales will guide us into the spirit of the season while deepening our connection to the land and its stories. A Strong Partnership for a Stronger Community For the last six years, United Indians of All Tribes Foundation, Green Seattle Partnership, and Futures Rising: Restoration and Co-Creation have been working hand-in-hand to restore and steward local lands. From community-led planting to habitat restoration, these efforts not only revitalize the earth but also center Coast Salish ecological knowledge and Indigenous leadership in environmental practices. Together, we’ve planted thousands of native trees and shrubs, removed acres of invasive plants, and cultivated deep, lasting relationships across communities. This work extends beyond the land—it also engages youth, families, and elders in learning about ecological stewardship, climate resilience, and community care. By building partnerships across environmental organizations, schools, and grassroots groups, we are ensuring the long-term ecological and cultural health of our region. The Food Sovereignty Forest In recent years, United Indians has also developed the Food Sovereignty Forest—a vibrant, growing space dedicated to restoring traditional foods, medicines, and native plants. This ecological and cultural classroom not only reconnects the community with ancestral knowledge, but it also supports the health and wellbeing of future generations. The forest embodies the powerful principle that caring for the land is inseparable from caring for people. Green Seattle Day builds on this foundation, continuing the work of ecological restoration while cultivating food, medicine, and knowledge sovereignty for the future. We can’t wait to welcome you to Daybreak Star on October 25th whether you're planting, listening, or learning, there’s a place for you in this vibrant and growing community. Let’s honor the land, our shared history, and each other—see you there! more

30 Daybreak Star Land & Community Tending October 30, 11am-2:30pm @ Daybreak Star I want to invite you to something really meaningful happening in our community: Forest Garden Community & Land Tending Days at Daybreak Star. These gatherings are about more than gardening—they're about showing up for the land, for Indigenous food sovereignty, and for the continued work of Native people reclaiming space, culture, and connection. Led by the hands and hearts of community members and organizers at United Indians of All Tribes, this work centers Indigenous knowledge and relationships with the land that go back thousands of years and continue strong today. Food as Medicine, Food as Resistance The forest garden is being grown with intention—filled with traditional plants like camas, salmonberry, huckleberry, wild strawberry, cedar, and nettle—not only as foods and medicines, but as acts of care for the many programs UIATF runs. These plants will nourish elders, youth, families, and ceremony. They are first and biggest teachers and ancestors. This is about food, yes—but it's also about sovereignty. About healing relationships with land that’s been taken and harmed. And about recognizing that tending plants is also a way of tending memory, culture, and future generations. These community tending days are open to all who want to learn, help, and build relationships. You don’t need gardening experience—just a willingness to listen, get your hands in the soil, and show up with care. This is Indigenous-led, land-based work. It’s rooted in culture, care, and connection. If you’ve been looking for a way to show up meaningfully, this is one of those opportunities. more
