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 blackberry but may also include other tasks such as distributing wood chip mulch.

Lizard Haven

March 29, 9am-12pm @ Discovery Park

Help us plant a new site that overlooks the south meadow with native meadow and forest edge shrubs and forbs. With the guidance of the UW Restoration Ecology Network, we'll be working in one of the most scenic restoration sites in the city. We are calling the site Lizard Haven due to the many northern alligator lizards seen in the area. Our primary task will be planting new plants, but we may also need be digging up blackberry roots and spreading wood chips. We'll have pitchforks, rakes, hand tillers, trowels, wheelbarrows and heavy duty shovels to accomplish our tasks. As an added perk, we will get a short lesson on restoration ecology techniques or philosophy from current students of the curriculum. check out the project website for more information: https://discoveryrestoration.weebly.com/ more
