21 Garry Oak and Camas Planting November 21, 9:30am-12:30pm @ Discovery Park Did you know that our one native oak tree, the Garry oak, supports far more caterpillars than any other tree in our region; more than 200 caterpillars are reliant on Garry oaks. We have some Garry oaks, madronas, camas, goldenrod and asters to add to the south meadow, increasing the biodiversity and improving the habitat in a grassland of mostly exotic pasture grasses. The planting will involve a good bit of preparation since the grasses are a hostile environment for new transplants. more

Come help us promote forest health and increase its biodiversity by weeding out invasives, mulching and aerate the soil to encourage symbiotic fungi, and plant this years native shrubs and groundcovers. Note. We usually take photographs at these work events and frequently use them on our social media, newsletter and marketing efforts. If you'd rather not be included in this, please let me know beforehand or let our photographer know at the event. Thanks more
24 June's Cathedral Planting and Meadowscaping November 24, 9:30am-12:30pm @ Discovery Park All our work in the fall is paying off! This site has been completely rejuvenated - freed from blackberry and ivy, we can now set it on a healthy course. Today we'll be finishing our fall planting and laying the groundwork for a new wildflower meadow. We still have that donated 8' Doug Fir, some Western Red Cedars, and a nice assortment of shrubs and perennials to get into the ground. For the wildflower meadow, we'll be laying out some tarps to smother the weeds and digging a trench around them to prevent root intrusion, covering the whole thing with mulch, and letting it sit until next fall. more
