Then you should join the Green SeaTac Partnership and our Forest Steward Noemie Maxwell for an urban forest restoration work party at North SeaTac Park! North SeaTac Park is a 200+ urban oasis under the flight paths of SeaTac Airport.

At this event\, we’ll do a site tour to see how the new plantings are doing\, remove re-emerging weeds\, and continue to expand the cleared area to provide even more of a buffer for the new plantings – and space for new ones. \nSite History:\nWe’ll be working in a corner of the park\, under towering poplars and Douglas Fir\, that was almost completely overrun with ivy that carpeted the ground and climbed the tree trunks until we began to transform it in early 2021. During two annual Green SeaTac Days in 2021 and 2022\, volunteers have planted white pine\, grand and douglas fir\, cedar\, snowberries\, fringe cup\, salal\, flowering currant\, and more on the newly-cleared land. Continuing work is needed to protect these new plantings so that they can thrive. \nAll are welcome to join and no experience is necessary\, so bring along your family and friends!  \nEvent Details:\nCLICK HERE TO SIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER! \nWhere: North SeaTac park \nWhen: Sunday\, January 29th 3pm-4:30pm. \nWhere to park:There’s parking on S. 136th St. right near the meeting place.

If coming by bus\, the 132 stops on DMMDS near 136th. \nWhere to meet:Meet in the park at the NE corner of Des Moines Memorial Dr. S. and S. 136th St. in SeaTac.
