Shoreline Park Work PartyJuly 27, 10am-12pm @ Shoreline Park Please join us in keeping the small forest of Shoreline Park beautiful. If we love this park, it will keep loving us right back. We're dreaming of a park free of invasive plants and filled with native plants. Work areas are manageable and it's easy to see the difference we've made so far. On this day, we'll be cutting and digging out Himalayan blackberry, rolling up carpets of English ivy, and working to preserve the trailing blackberry, salal, ferns, bleeding heart, huckleberry, and other native plants already thriving. We'll also be hauling mulch to the cleared area. more |

Join us! Weekly Sunday Work PartyJuly 28, 9am-12pm @ Twin Ponds Park Lots of growth everywhere in West Twin Ponds! There are some very big and delicious salmonberries—red, orange and golden. Thimbleberries not quite ripe at the end of June but should be ready to eat in July. It is okay to pick and eat in between pulling out invasive plants! The weather that has brought us berries has also encouraged herb Robert and the dreaded bindweed. Baby blackberries are also emerging. So join us in combating invasive plants and get a taste of our suburban forest! more |
