    Description

    Come on down to the Tacoma waterfront and help care for the important habitat at Dickman Mill Park by removing invasive blackberries that once covered the entire park. Stewards and volunteers have been hard at work to keep the blackberries away and we need your help to make sure they don’t return.

    • All ages and abilities welcome, no experience necessary.
    • Tools and training will be provided.
    • Dress for the weather. Work parties will take place rain or shine.
    • Restrooms are available at the park.
