Meet at the Westside Olympia heronry: east end of Dickinson Ave. NW (east of Rogers St. NW); Olympia, WA 98502

Come plant native trees and shrubs, spread mulch, and remove ivy with Stream Team as they join with the Olympia Coalition for Ecosystems Preservation (www.olyecosystems.org) and Washington Conservation Corps to restore the forest where local herons have chosen to build their nests. This is our last chance to do restoration work before the nesting season. Herons need 7 months of undisturbed quiet to nest and raise their young. Please dress for the weather. Gloves, tools, and hot beverages will be provided.
