Free The Green

A huge thank you to our volunteers, field crew, and Orca Conservancy for all of the hard work we put into our Berrydale Tree Forest site this past Saturday!

Creating survival rings around our native plantings by cutting back the invasive reed canary grass and mulching the plants are all huge efforts displayed in the success of our restoration site.

If you’d like to learn how to get involved and give back to the environment, check out our events page on our website at https://www.freethegreen.org (or check the link in our bio) to learn more and signup for future events 🌲🌲🌲

This restoration and education project is supported by the King County Cooperative Watershed Management (CWM) Grant Program, with funding provided through the WRIA 9 Salmon Recovery Council and the King County Flood Control
