Activities

Join the Brugger's Bog Park Native Plant Stewards and Shoreline Green Partnership as we continue to restore this important wetland habitat with native shrubs, trees and meadow. This City of Shoreline Park is located in the Lyons Creek Watershed which includes creeks that enter Lake Washington then continuing on to Puget Sound. You'll be helping to improve this shrub and forested area by removing invasive blackberry, mulching and adding tree guards to new plants added over the winter. Much to be done getting new plants protected from chewing small wildlife including hungry rabbits 😲 and even time to remove those unwanted blackberries that easily over grow limiting space for the native plants!

What to Bring

Wear clothing and sturdy shoes you don't mind getting dirty, snagged on thorns and a bit wet if we've had rain. This is a RAIN or SHINE event! Which is reason to celebrate since RAIN helps our watersheds! Long pants and long sleeves will protect you if we work in blackberry areas. Bring a hat if sunny and we'll provide everything else! Tools, gloves and drinking water will be provided but you may bring your own water bottle.

Where to Meet

Meet at the Park entrance down the short gravel access road to the bridge over the stream. Look for Work Party sign to find the Stewards and our canopy just past the bridge. Stewards will wear orange vests and name tags. No need to have previous experience!

Where to Park

Plenty of parking off 25th Ave NE at entrance to park. Please carpool if possible. Metro Bus route 331 stops at Ballinger Way which is also an easy walk down a safe trail to the meadow to find Stewards.
