Are you passionate about nature and want to make a difference in your local community? We're looking for volunteers (groups and individuals alike!) to join our upcoming restoration events in Seattle! Our events focus on restoring and maintaining the beautiful parks and green spaces throughout the city, providing essential support to our local ecosystem. In addition to an introduction on restoration and a history of the site we are working at - activities may include removing invasive species, planting native plants, spreading mulch, and general clean-up tasks. No prior experience is necessary - we welcome volunteers of all skill levels and backgrounds! By joining our restoration events, you'll have the opportunity to:

  • Connect with nature and learn about local ecology
  • Make new friends and engage with your community
  • Develop new skills in environmental stewardship
  • Contribute to the health and beauty of Seattle's parks and green spaces

    Feel free to check out and register for our upcoming events here: https://linktr.ee/thedirtcorps or reach out to elena@thedirtcorps for more information!

    We are looking for both groups and individuals! Events are typically on Saturdays from 10am-1pm. We also can accomodate private events for groups of 10 and over.
