Come join us for a stewardship work party to help restore North Creek Forest at the Lower Restoration Sites! You will make the forest healthier by removing invasive plants, like Himalayan blackberry and morning glory, and spreading wood chip mulch. Removing the invasive plants will make room for future native plants, and mulching will provide soil nutrients and reduce erosion. No experience is required, and all ages and group sizes are more than welcome!
Friends of North Creek Forest will provide tools, gloves, and a light refreshments for all volunteers. Directions are below:
LOWER RESTORATION SITES (#1, #2, #3)
- GPS: 20329 112th Ave. NE, Bothell, WA 98011
- Directions:
- Our Lower Restoration sites (Sites 1-3) are accessed by 112th Ave. NE., which is off of Beardslee Blvd./NE 195th St. just north of the UW Bothell & Cascadia College campuses.
