Planting at Carnation Marsh
ORGANIZATION: Mountains To Sound Greenway Trust
Please visit the new page to apply.
The Carnation Marsh Natural Area is a 67-acre portion of the greater 190 acres that make up the entire Carnation Marsh wetland system along the Snoqualmie River. The marsh is home to a high diversity of bird, animal, and plant species and is an excellent location for birdwatching. Recent sightings include ospreys, belted kingfishers, bald eagles, and great blue herons. As it is located along the Snoqualmie River, Carnation Marsh also provides significant storage of floodwaters from the river and tributary streams.
Join us as we partner with King County Parks to plant native trees and shrubs throughout this important wetland.
