Join us for Seattle Adopt a Street’s 2025 All Hands Neighborhood Cleanup Series! We’re sprucing up 6 Seattle neighborhoods with 10 community cleanups from March to November—focusing on removing litter and beautifying our streets. Join us on Saturday, March 22 in White Center, we’ll meet at Fresh Flours and send teams out in all directions to remove litter, spruce up our streets and build community together.

We’ll meet Heather at her dead end entrance into Schmitz Park and continue helping her dive into ivy removal. We’ve made great progress there this past year with several large-scale ivy pulling events. This week we’ll help connect areas we were working on and get roots off the ground.

We’ll head back to Lincoln Park beach with Seattle Parks & Rec and work around the bathrooms down by the ferry. We’ll continue on the blackberry brambles and other invasives that have taken over the area to open up the view and room for native plants, it’s starting to look pretty great down there! This will be an ongoing series working along the shoreline path to get it back to a more natural state.

We’ll head back under the 1st Ave Bridge with SDOT and keep clearing invasive overgrowth and litter so this area becomes less of a magnet for dumping and hanging out. This will be an ongoing series for a while so we’ll pick a section and knock it out and then see what we’ll tackle next week.
