DESCRIPTION:Join us for a restoration work party at Kubota Garden. \nSo much ivy! Every month\, volunteers make a big difference by removing ivy so that trees\, bushes\, ferns and other native plants have room to grow. As you will quickly see\, the ivy covers large areas of ground and is climbing up trees. We also are discovering small Himalayan blackberry plants and getting those out immediately is a priority. No experience is needed – just bring your energy and interest in making a difference! We like to show our thanks with homemade cookies at the end. \nRegister URL:https://www.seattleparksfoundation.org/event/kubota-forest-work-always-ivy-5/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.seattleparksfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/home-new-2-catherine-anstett-trolls-knoll-gloves.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260425T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260425T120000 DTSTAMP:20260419T153229 CREATED:20260410T153000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260410T153000Z UID:278891-1777111200-1777118400@www.seattleparksfoundation.org SUMMARY:Tree Equity Network: April Volunteer Day DESCRIPTION:Join us at SeaTac-Des Moines Creek Park on April 25th for a celebration of Earth Day through ivy removal and site restoration! \nThis event\, hosted by Green SeaTac Partnership\, is a chance for you to build a connection with your neighbors across the region and invest in green spaces that deserve our care and attention. \nTime: 10am to 12pm \nArea: SeaTac / Des Moines \nAge Range: All ages are welcome! \nSee the registration page for more in-depth details. \nLearn more + register here* \n*When registering\, please select “Other” Group Type and let them know you’re with the Tree Equity Network!
