    Description

    Activities

    We're excited to invite you to volunteer with us at Crestview Park, a beloved community gathering space in Tukwila featuring dog play areas, trails, and natural landscapes. Join us on March 28, from 10:00-12:30, to restore essential habitat by removing ivy and Himalayan blackberries that threaten our local native trees, shrubs, and groundcover. Established native plants benefit local wildlife, improve water quality, and enhance air quality.

    Join Vive NW and Forterra to gain valuable insights into ecological restoration. We'll start with a walk of the site and have restoration professionals on hand to answer questions about plants, restoration, and habitat management.

    What we are doing: Crestview Park provides critical habitat restoration opportunities alongside its popular amenities. By removing invasive ivy and blackberries, we ensure that native plants can thrive, supporting the park's ecological health while maintaining the community spaces that make this park so valued by Tukwila residents.
