Join the Green Kirkland Partnership as we work to restore the forest of South Rose Hill Park. Volunteers will spend the time doing a mix of restoration activities which will include planting native trees, shrubs and groundcovers, spreading mulch and removing aggressive invasive species like ivy and blackberry. No experience is necessary and we encourage volunteers of all ages to join us!
Suggested Dress: Remember to dress for the weather (don’t forget raingear!). Wear boots or comfortable athletic shoes, work clothes (long pants), and layers that you don’t mind getting dirty.
What to bring to volunteer: Bring a filled water bottle and snacks to munch on during the event. Tools, gloves and training will be provided at the site.
