SUMMARY:EarthCorps Duwamish River Work Party
DESCRIPTION:Join EarthCorps and the City of Tukwila as we work to improve the Duwamish River near the Tukwila Community Center.   A healthy array of plants on the banks of the river is important for migrating and resident fish\, birds and other wildlife.   Currently\, much of the Duwamish riverbank is covered in aggressive weeds that provide little to no shelter\, shade or food for wildlife. A variety of native plants are also critical for filtering polluted rainwater that runs off of parking lots\, roads and roofs.   Not to mention the enjoyment people can get by sitting in the shade of a tree by the river!    Please join us \nThe Basics\nEarthCorps 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!  This 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!)\nLong pants and long sleeves (helps protect against prickly plants)\nSturdy shoes that can handle some mud (closed toed shoes are required: work boots\, hiking boots\, rubber boots\, etc.)\nRain gear and warm layers (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\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. Healthy and thriving forests are vital to our community because they absorb and filter rain water\, produce clean oxygen\, provide living spaces for wildlife\, and create a place for people to connect with the outdoors. \nIn order to help create healthy forests\, the work can include: \n\nRemoving aggressive weeds (like English Ivy or Himalayan Blackberry)\nMaintaining areas where these weeds have been removed (weeding or spreading mulch)\nPlanting trees and shrubs during the rainy season (often ~Oct.-Feb.)\n\nGroups\nIf you are coming as a group\, the group leaders are expected to have an active role in our events. Please get in touch with volunteer@earthcorps.org before the event to make sure everything is in order. On the day of the event\, make yourself known to the staff (in bright yellow vests) and arrive early in order to help guide your group members. \nYouth Policy\nYouth under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a parent\, guardian\, or responsible adult. All volunteers between the ages of 14 and 17 that are not with a parent or guardian must bring a filled out Youth Waiver the day of the event.  \nYouth and school groups are welcome to attend; leaders should contact the  Volunteer Team  to take care of all necessary preparations.   \n\n\n**  Sign Up         March 11      10am-2pm      Number of volunteer positions available: 14\n** Sign Up       May 13     10am-2pm       Number of volunteer positions available: 15

DESCRIPTION:Volunteer in the Forests of Tukwila!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCome join us friends\, neighbors\, and volunteers along the  Green-Duwamish river for a day of environmental service! At the Duwamish Hill Preserve we will be tackling some invasive weeds to help native plants as they wake up for Spring! This is a great way to give back to your local community\, and also is an awesome opportunity to meet some new faces\, to get your hands dirty\, and to get outside and connect with the Green-Duwamish River! \nWhat to bring: Please dress for the weather because we will be working rain or shine! Boots or comfortable athletic shoes\, work clothes\, appropriate layers for rain and sun. Volunteers should also bring a refillable water bottle. Restoration training\, snacks\, tools\, and gloves will be provided.

Youth Waiver for Forterra Restoration Events \n  \nTo RSVP\, email Alex Selvey at aselvey@forterra.org!\n  \nAbout the Property: In 2001\, Forterra\, the City of Tukwila\, and a local citizen group formed a partnership to work for the preservation of an undeveloped parcel of land on the Duwamish River. The property will be managed as a public open space preserve devoted to the interpretation of the site’s Native American cultural significance and other aspects of Duwamish River Valley natural and cultural history. The Hill is culturally significant for its association with southern Puget Sound Salish oral tradition and history\, as a key location in the stories collectively known as the “Epic of the Winds.”
