Shoreline Park Work Party

June 22, 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, and other native plants already thriving. We'll also be hauling mulch to cleared areas and re-weeding the planted zones more

Plus more TLC for our prior restoration areas. Our work is high visibility, high impact. Very social with lots of humans, puppies, and rainbows. Plus the occasional Big Foot sighting. more
