Join the last 2012 Volunteer Work Party at Grace Cole Nature Park Saturday, November 17th from 9am - 12pm.
Mamie Bolander says, "We've been further clearing the wetland area of Himalayan blackberries and their roots. It's really opening up! We will try to move some mulch onto the steep slope up above, which we cleared of Ivy last year. The pile of chips is on the road above the park. We bag it and carry it through a neighboring backyard to the top of the slope and broadcast it from above. We will also continue blackberry removal"
Dress for the weather. Bring gloves and tools (loppers, pruners, shovels, or other digging tools) or use the ones the City provides. Beverages and snacks provided.
You are invited to attend even if you haven't been able to make it for quite a while. There will be a break in December then work parties will resume on Saturday, January 26, 2013.
Location: Grace Cole Nature Park, 30th Avenue NE and NE 166th Street. To reach, turn south off NE 178th Street onto 28th Avenue NE, travel 1/2 mile, the park is on your right.
