Magnuson ReforestationApril 28, 11:30am-2:30pm @ Warren G. Magnuson Park Work with a team of UW restoration ecology students to restore what had been a denuded naval air station to healthy habitat which will increase human wellbeing and ecosystem services. (We'll be working where some of the runways shown in the listing photo once were). Work will mostly be distributing wood chip mulch and may also include other work such as weeding and removing invasive plantsl. This event is also an opportunity for participants to enjoy nature and learn a bit about native plants while doing satisfying work. Because the work may be beyond capability of youth below high school age, please get the leader’s permission before registering if younger. more |

Spruce Island Blackberry Resprout managementApril 30, 9am-12pm @ Discovery Park Even though we thought we got every root last year, blackberry has a way of hiding until springtime. But now they are showing themselves and are very easily dug up. We'll spread mulch wherever we disturb the soil to make sure that weed seeds don't have a chance to sprout. We'll take a tour of all the diversity planted in the site last fall and assess the transplant success. more |
