Happy Duwamish Alive! Spend the day planting with Friends of the Hill, volunteer Forest Stewards, to keep Duwamish Hill Preserve's natural areas healthy and sustainable. Join us and hundreds of volunteers at multiple sites, for a day of working in the Duwamish Watershed.

All tools and training will be provided.

Duwamish Alive collaborates with community, municipalities, non-profits and businesses within the Duwamish River Watershed to preserve and enhance habitat for people and wildlife, towards improving the health of the Puget Sound. Our primary goals are to: Promote healthy, functioning habitat in the Duwamish River Watershed through increasing and connecting habitat and addressing critical issues affecting the watershed’s health. Involve community members in direct stewardship of the watershed through volunteer work parties, environmental education, and neighborhood celebrations.

12424 42nd Ave S, Tukwila, WA 98188, US

Mission Statement

Healthy parks and natural open spaces are a gift to our city and everyone in it. They provide places where people can connect with nature, see wildlife, and explore the beautiful Pacific Northwest. They also keep the air and waterways clean, buffer noise, provide habitat for local wildlife, and absorb carbon to fight against climate change. These valuable places can’t take care of themselves in an urban environment, they need our help to make sure we have a healthy and green Tukwila-today, tomorrow, and into the future.

Description

Join friends, neighbors, and bring your families outside to learn about trees, shrubs, invasive plants, how to use tools, and much more. Work parties are being planned for community members and businesses to care for precious urban forests and to ensure healthy, safe, and beautiful public spaces to enjoy in the future.
