Meet at the intersection of 25th Ave SW and SW Juneau St (one block West of Delridge Wy SW)
Join Trees for Neighborhoods and Dirt Corps for our upcoming tree care skill share and volunteer work party along Juneau St/Longfellow Creek. This event will include a skill share about how to mulch trees in a way that is beneficial to the tree and doesn't harm them. We will also learn about different types of mulch and their different role in moisture retention, soil amendments and erosion control. We’ll then practice these skills while caring for the trees in this special riparian forest ecosystem. Come learn and care for this neighborhood greenspace with us!
All ages and skill levels are welcome! Please wear clothing that can get dirty, including long sleeves, long pants, and closed-toed shoes. We’ll be working rain or shine, so everyone is encouraged to dress for the weather and wear layers if you can. We’ll provide the tools, gloves, snacks, hot drinks, and water.
