We're excited to invite you to volunteer with us at Duwamish Hill Preserve, a Tukwila park providing critical wildlife habitat and public trails in a fairly industrial area. Join us on Friday, Feb. 20, from 1:00 to 3:30 PM, to restore essential wildlife habitat by removing Himalayan blackberries that threaten our local native trees, shrubs, and groundcover. Established native plants benefit local wildlife, improve water quality, and enhance air quality.
You will also gain valuable insights into ecological restoration and our innovative approach to land conservation. We'll start with a walk on the site and have restoration professionals on hand to answer questions about plants, restoration, the Green Tukwila Partnership, and Forterra.
What we are doing:
The Preserve now includes an outdoor classroom area, the Cultural Garden, an enhanced trail system, and continued restoration opportunities for volunteers. We’ll be removing the blackberry to ensure the trees, shrubs, and groundcovers we planted can thrive. It’s a great opportunity to learn about Forterra's innovative approach to land conservation, including its role in safeguarding the Duwamish Hill Preserve.
