Saturday work party at Grace Cole

The rains have returned! It's the perfect time to add some trees and shrubs to Grace Cole Nature Park. They'll be well watered as they establish roots to endure the long dry spell next summer.

Join a work party on Saturday November 22, from 9am to 12pm. There are a number of Cedar trees, some Huckleberries, Salal and Oregon Grape to put in the ground.

Other tasks which need to be accomplished are sweeping leaves from the boardwalk and raking leaves from the trail.

Of course, there are always more blackberries and even ivy to deal with, if those you favorite endeavors!

Some tools will be available, but you're encouraged to bring your favorite ones, if you prefer. There will be some extra gloves on hand.

Beverages and snacks will be provided.

Grace Cole Nature Park, 30th Avenue NE and NE 166th Street. To reach, turn south off NE 178th Street onto 28th Avenue NE, travel 1/2 mile, the park is on your right.
