Please join your neighbors on September 24th, 2022 at our own Shorewood Park. The park entrance is on 28th Ave. NW just down the street from Shorewood Elementary School. We will meet at 10:00 AM and work until Noon.
The main work will be to remove invasive plants such as English Ivy, Herb Robert and Himalayan Blackberry.
Removing Ivy frees up growing space for native plants which are so very important as hosts to insects that nourish young salmon. After young salmon migrate to Puget Sound they spend 6 months near the shore feeding on tiny fish and terrestrial insects. Northwest native insects do not eat Ivy (note all of those shiny green leaves with no holes).
Gloves and tools will be provided, but feel free to bring your own favorites.
Please email Jean Spohn, jeanspohn@centurylink.net if you have questions or would like to help.
