Volunteers are needed to help restore N. SeaTac Park’s forest on Sunday, May 16, 2021, from 3 – 5 p.m.
This tiny corner of the park was almost completely overrun with ivy until volunteers began to transform it. Volunteers will be removing ivy from trees and ground to help prepare this area for new plantings in the fall.
COVID Guidelines

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide water and snacks during our events. Please come prepared with your own water bottle and food. You are welcome to bring your own hand sanitizer, work gloves, and specific tools applicable to the tasks outlined in the work plan below (please no power equipment).

What to Bring
Wear sturdy, closed-toed shoes, long sleeves and pants. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. Hats are recommended and masks required. If you have gardening gloves or hand tools that you like to use, feel free to bring them. Much of the work involves removing ivy from the ground, so knee pads or thick pants may be helpful.
