Help Stream Team and Native Plant Salvage keep theMcLaneCreek Nature Trail accessible and enjoyable for everyone!
Spend a few hours with Native Plant Salvage and Stream Team as we mindfully trim back growth along the trail and clear the paths, and enjoy the great outdoors! Snacks and tools are provided, and volunteers will be issued a temporary Discover Pass for this event.
BONUS: There will be a short educational plant walk (completely optional) directly following the volunteer event! Attend a guided tour of the nature trails, and learn some of the names and roles of our native plants. The Plant walk will depart from the lower trailhead at 6pm, and finish around 7. All ages and levels of experience are welcome! More info at www.NativePlantSalvage.org
Our two programs committed to this work to prevent excessive vegetation removal, and are pleased to see a flourishing of native perennials along the trail since we started several years ago.
Thanks for your interest! Please register online at http://streamteam.info/getinvolved/calendar/
or by emailing nativeplantsalvage@gmail.com
We hope to see you soon!

Mission Statement
Providing hands-on education to protect and conserve water resources and habitat from the South Sound Prairies to the shores of Puget Sound since 1994.
Description
The Native Plant Salvage Foundation is a non-profit organization that is guided by a volunteer board of directors, and supported by a small but mighty crew of volunteers, supporters, educators and community partners.
As our name implies, we salvage native plants during the winter months at sites that are soon to be developed. Our programs also expand far beyond our winter salvages. We operate a holding beds for salvaged plants and nursery where we offer propagation workshops regularly. Our work also includes restoration activities as well as education and outreach in the fields of Green Stormwater Infrastructure (GIS), school programs, plant identification classes, and sustainable landscaping.
