MLK Day Restoration Work Party

Come and celebrate the Martin Luther King Jr’s service to the world by giving back to your community and the environment.

The West Bay Woods of Olympia, Washington are crucial habitat for Pacific Great Blue Herons and many other species. With recent City acquisitions, the West Bay Woods have grown by several acres. The Olympia Coalition for Ecosystems Preservation invites you to be a part of an ongoing effort to restore these eight acres of land. Work includes: clearing ivy from trees and the ground, removing invasive Holly trees, and weeding and maintaining existing areas planted with native species. Please bring gloves, clippers, handsaw and/or a shovel if you have them. This is a rewarding way to preserve habitat, improve water quality, and create urban wild lands. Your work will make an immediate and visible impact!
