Join the Green Kirkland Partnership to help with the restoration of the newly re-named Josten Park (formerly the North Juanita Open Space). Volunteers will spend the morning doing a mix of restoration activities which may include removing aggressive invasive species like ivy and blackberry, and spreading mulch over cleared areas. No experience is necessary and we encourage volunteers of all ages to join us! This event will be led by a volunteer Green Kirkland Steward.
Respond if interested!
