Volunteer opportunity - help maintain trees on the Burke Gilman Trail

Help maintain trees on the Burke Gilman Trail on Saturday August 13th from 10:00am to 12:00pm.

This past winter, citizen-volunteers planted 44 trees along the Burke Gilman Trail across the street from Lake Forest Park City Hall. Now that the summer is heating up, tree watering bags, weeding, and mulching are needed to ensure that the plantings succeed.

Come join City Arborist Mike Woodbury at an all-volunteer planting event on August 13th. Learn about tree maintenance and care while doing your part to enhance our urban forest. These volunteer hours can count toward Shoreline School District volunteer requirements.

All necessary tools will be provided by the City of Lake Forest Park, but bring gardening gloves if you have them. The event is rain-or-shine, so dress appropriately. Meet on the Burke Gilman Trail, roughly across from Starbucks, at 9:45am.
