  • 3 people are interested

Come join us for this exciting event where we will plant 200 trees as part of a joint effort among, Forterra, Green Puyallup Partnership, Puyallup Watershed Initiative and Evergreen Carbon Capture.

These trees will not only store carbon but also provide homes, food and shelter for our native wildlife. Deadman’s Pond is near the headwaters of Clark’s Creek and one of the gems of the City of Puyallup’s green space system.

No experience needed. All tools and gloves provided.

What to bring: Tough clothes, and shoes that can get dirty and wet.

Where to meet: Deadman’s pond is located in Puyallup (8601 23rd Ave SW). Some navigation systems have a hard time finding Deadman’s pond please use this pin.

Where to park: Parking is limited but you can park on the side of the road or in the small driveway near the house.

Please RSVP (the earlier the better!) so that we can plan a great event for you. To RSVP, click here, or contact Forterra at mmegaATforterra.org

Mission Statement

Forterra's mission is to act with immediacy to protect, enhance and steward our region's most precious resources--its communities and its landscapes. Since 1989, we have been working toward a future in which our children and grandchildren can experience nature in and around our urban environments.

Description

Forterra conserves land by working with individuals, companies and local governments. We strive to maximize the ecological value of land, while meeting the needs of landowners. We may accept land as a donation, purchase it, or transfer it to public ownership. We often serve as a broker to identify and negotiate the most effective ownership to protect important lands. We establish conservation easements to preserve special features. For each and every property, we explore available strategies or create new ones to provide permanent protection. Forterra has established a Conservation Agenda for our region, with specific priorities and methods for each type of landscape. Current initiatives include the protection of working forests on the foothills of the Cascades, and the creation of salmon sanctuaries along our region's highest quality rivers and streams.
