Come join over 1,000 volunteers at 13 sites across Seattle and Tukwila in a joint effort to restore the watershed of the Duwamish River.
Communities, non-profits, businesses, and families will be engaging in restoration efforts that range from on-the-river kayak cleanup to graffiti removal to pulling invasive species. The work parties go from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. Snacks, tools, and gloves will be included, all you need to bring is yourself!
After the work party you can join Nature Consortium for a festival with free food, live music, and hands-on arts activities. To sign up, please email contact@duwamishalive.org, or call 206-923-0853.
