FIRST AND THIRD SATURDAY IN APRIL, MAY, & JUNE, 10 A.M.–2 P.M., meet in the lower parking lot; registration required

Spring work parties in the Greenbelt are starting up again!

Come commune with the forest while helping weed and maybe plant. Get your hands/gloves dirty as you remove non-native plants and create native habitat in the middle of Seattle’s urban environment. Wear sturdy, close toed shoes that can get wet, long-sleeved shirt, pants, and hat. Bring water, a snack, and a raincoat if there's a chance of rain.

Each work party is limited to 18 people, and you must sign up beforehand for each date. All ages are welcome. Tools and training will be provided. Sign up links for each event can be found at:

For questions and more details contact Forest Stewards Robert Hayden and Joey Baumgartner (emails on the registration pages linked above), or Creation Care ministry leaders Guy Oram or Kathy Minsch at: creationcare@saintmarks.org
