We'll be heading down into the Greenspace with Doug and Carl this Friday to work on trees and ground ivy if that's your jam. Heather is pushing pause along Admiral but will be having some planned clearings readying for wood chips and planting in the coming weeks and months.

We’ll be shifting gears this week and helping Tim and Steve out at Junction Plaza Park to help clear garden beds for mulch, wood chips and future plantings. As you can see in the post pic the beds are pretty dense so we could use as many hands as we can get to see what we can accomplish this week, though this may be a multi-visit location to get it cleaned up for the Summer.

We'll do another Wednesday with Mary back on the fishing pier side of S. Spokane to readdress our original SDOT Sprucing spot and see if we can get it looking shipshape again.

We have two birthday girls in the house who’d like to do a cleanup for their birthday celebrations. We’ll meet out by Fresh Flours and send folks in all directions and then meet back at Fresh Flours afterwards for a celebratory treat. Happy birthday Liz and Jill, we can’t wait to celebrate your birthday week!

Join us on Sat, May 4 in the Mount Baker neighborhood as we hold our third city cleanup in the series. We'll start at the Mount Baker Light Rail station and send teams out in all directions to beautify our streets and build community.

This will be week 13 assisting Seattle Parks & Rec Forest Steward Heather Scott along her section of the Duwamish Head Greenspace and we have choices! Stay with Heather along Admiral to continue addressing ground ivy, blackberry and weeding to prep for wood chips and new plantings. Doug Adams will also be working deeper in the woods working on ringing trees if that’s more of your interest. This may continue to be the options heading into the Summer.

This week’s Parks collab is being penciled in back at Emma Schmitz Memorial Overlook but this park is susceptible to cancellation due to staffing shortages like last week as the park needs to be cleared out each day of piles unlike larger parks. So we’ll keep Hamilton Viewpoint as the backup in case I get that last minute call that Emma Schmitz is a no go.

We were asked by a large Girl Scout group to help facilitate a cleanup of Camp Long on Sunday. That will happen, but in my scouting I discovered the park looks pretty nice trash-wise. I talked to a groundskeeper who mentioned that they have some blackberry and ivy that could use some help though so I thought I’d see if the older scouts and anyone in our group would like to do some Sprucing while the younger kids scour the area for micro trash.

This will be our third cleanup with Seattle Parks gardeners at Hamilton Viewpoint which was the main reason I initially reached out to get engaged with them. We’ll dig back into the blackberries along the perimeter of the park and scattered through some of the beds.

We'll continue hitting the WS Bridge Trail we've been assisting SDOT with the past several months. We'll be on the east side of S. Spokane St. where there's a little park that continues to need some Sprucing. After coming over the Lower Bridge get in the right hand lane and turn into the lot. You’ll see the van from the road and I will try to get cones up on the side walk where you’ll turn in.

Join us Saturday mornings at 7am for sunrise cleanups on Alki Beach. We start at the Statue of Liberty plaza next to the Bathhouse.
