SUMMARY:Help Heal Our Habitat at Codiga Park
DESCRIPTION:Join EarthCorps and the City of Tukwila as we continue to work in the Codiga Park natural area on the Duwamish River. This former dairy farm is now part park and part tidal wetland that provides shelter and food for wildlife like ospreys\, great blue herons\, bald eagles and juvenile salmon. In 2005\, the City of Tukwila and the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers partnered to excavate the center of the property\, creating a side channel that offers young salmon a chance to rest\, forage for food and avoid predators in a more natural wetland habitat. The new channel was planted with native vegetation that thrived. The shoreline of the river\, however\, remained dominated by invasive Himalayan blackberry and Japanese knotweed. Since 2008\, the riverbank has been cleared of invasive weeds and planted with native plants.  EarthCorps’ Sound Stewards monitor and maintain Codiga monthly to promote healthy native plants. Work alongside Sound Stewards to ensure the success of the Codiga Park restoration site! \nThe Basics\nRegistration is required. EarthCorps supplies gloves\, tools\, water and snack bars. We will teach you everything you need to know about tool use\, safety\, forest health\, and the importance of the work you will be doing. No experience necessary\, just come ready to learn something new! Be sure to sign in at registration when you arrive. \n✔️ REGISTER FOR OCT 12:    https://www.tfaforms.com/4835848?VolJobID=a0DHn000018mghaMAA&VolShiftID=a0EUh000001b4LpMAI \n✔️ REGISTER FOR NOV 2:    https://www.tfaforms.com/4835848?VolJobID=a0DHn000018mghaMAA&VolShiftID=a0EUh000001b4TtMAI \nThis video may give you a better idea of what to expect. \nFor your safety and comfort please bring:\n\nClothing that can get dirty (because it will!)\nClothing that will protect your legs against prickly plants (no shorts\, please)\nSturdy shoes that can handle some mud (closed toed shoes are required such as work boots\, hiking boots\, rubber boots\, etc. NO sandals\, flats\, or heels)\nRain gear and warm layers -OR- sun protection (check the weather!)\nSack lunch and snacks (to refuel)\nFull water bottle (we will have a jug on-site for re-fills)\nTravel mug for tea/coffee\nIf you have a favorite pair of gloves\, feel free to bring them (otherwise we’re happy to provide a pair)\n\nThe event will happen rain or shine! \nWhat will volunteers be doing at the event?\nWhile the exact tasks can vary\, our projects focus on improving the forests and parks in our local cities.
