Forest Stewardship - McCollum Park on Sunday, July 20, 12 - 2 PM.
Join community stewards and staff at McCollum Park to care for the forest and North Creek watershed on Sunday, July 20. Register at the link in our bio.
In 2022, volunteers weeded and planted trees and shrubs in the northwest section of the park and have planted annually since then. At this event, participants will focus on weeding around the plantings and applying mulch to the soil. Your contribution will help volunteer leads and staff create a planting plan for this winter.
Please wear long sleeves, long pants and sturdy, closed-toe shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty or snagged on prickly plants. Bring a full water bottle and a snack. Hand tools and gloves will be provided, but you can bring your own if you wish. Remember to bring rain gear if rain is in the forecast.
Remember that high heat and smoke season in Washington may be in full swing. To protect yourself, drink plenty of water, take frequent breaks, and consider wearing an N95 mask while exerting yourself outside. There is plenty of shade at this work site, but no drinking water source, so please take the necessary precautions to have a fun time with us!
