Eco Club at the Nursery in Lake Sammamish State Park
Join us for a special volunteer event! Sid Carroz was part of the Clean Water Ambassadors internship this past summer with the Greenway Trust and King County Wastewater Treatment Division. He is co-leading this volunteer event to continue building on those skills. Volunteers will help weed and maintain plants in the Greenway’s native plant nursery.
For safety, volunteers are required to wear:
- Sturdy, close-toed shoes
- Gloves (provided)
Volunteers are recommended to wear:
- Long pants
In addition, we recommend that participants bring:
- Warm layers
- Rain gear
- Snacks for breaks
- At least one full water bottle
- Small daypack for food, extra layers, etc.
The Greenway Native Plant Nursery is home to nearly 30,000 native trees and shrubs. From the very start of their journey with the Greenway Trust, these trees are cared for by volunteers. At the nursery, volunteers pot these trees and shrubs, and after they have grown in our nursery for about two years, volunteers will plant these plants again, this time in their final homes in urban forests, parks, and open spaces throughout the Greenway landscape.
