Gardening at Grace Cole Park this Saturday

The Lake Forest Park Stewardship Foundation and the Volunteers for Outdoor Washington will be working in the Grace Cole Nature Park this Saturday, March 20, from 9 am to 2:30 pm.

The park is located at 30th Ave NE and NE 165th Street. Driving directions: Go south on 28th from NE 178th in Lake Forest Park and drive about 1/2 mile until just before the road turns. The park is on the right.

The volunteers plan to spruce up the new trails and remove ivy.

The Foundation is soliciting donations of native plants, particularly sword ferns, salal, Indian plum, Red elderberry, low Oregon grape, local Red Cedar, Hemlock and Douglas Fir.

New volunteers are welcome and are advised to wear gloves and dress for the weather. Some donated gloves from Ace Hardware in Towne Centre will be available. Bring water in a reusable bottle. Snacks are being furnished by the Lake Forest Park Garden Club.
