Event Overview
You are invited to join the Snoqualmie Tribe and Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust in continuing habitat restoration at the City of Snoqualmie’s Three Forks Natural Area. Continuous restoration has been ongoing on this site for many years, with Mountains to Sound starting their work in 2008 and the Snoqualmie Tribe starting in 2017. Acres of blackberry and reed canary grass have been replaced with native plants, and yet, the work continues! Join us in keeping the momentum going as we start a new restoration patch, planting native trees where weeds once were, and be inspired by the progress of neighboring restoration from the past. Learn how our actions here are connected to salmon habitat, flood impacts, and the general health of the river and water that support us all.
