Northacres Park was still hanging onto to its fall leaves on one of the first cold days in an otherwise warm autumn. Squad helped with a variety of stewardship tasks around the various restoration areas underneath the lovely mature second growth forest. Small native plants were put in, mulch was spread and weeds were dug. In what may have been a first, large log rounds were moved from a tree that had come down; their weight really necessitated teamwork to transport them!
Green Seattle Partnership hosts many other regular events at this park and so many more, contributing to the wellbeing of our public green spaces. Consider seeing if your local natural areas have work parties you can sign up for as well.
Happy Holidays to everyone and see you in the New Year!
