Nearby Earth Day Events

Seattle Parks and Recreation is celebrating Earth Day in partnership with Green Seattle, on Sunday. 

Two of the events are nearby:

• 8-11am - join Friends of the Burke-Gilman Trail for their monthly Bird Walk and Citizen Science project. All ages and experience levels welcome. Woody, Wheeler, Master Birder and author will lead our walk.
• 9:30-12:30 Magnuson Reforestoration - Help create and improve thriving forest habitat on what was once a denuded and sterile navy airfield.. It will create healthy forest habitat and increase beneficial ecosystem services including provision of human enjoyment and health. It is also an opportunity to enjoy nature and learn a bit about native plants while doing satisfying work. Advance approval of leader is required for youth groups or children below high school age.

Seattle Parks and Recreation information says: 

April is Earth Month, an annual celebration and appreciation of our beautiful planet, and a chance to have fun and give back while getting some fresh spring air.   

Join Seattle Parks and Recreation and our partners at one of the many volunteer Earth Month events happening across Seattle. You can get your hands dirty and help revitalize a much-loved park or look for wildlife along trails bursting with new growth.  

Volunteer activities include nature walks, gardening, trail repair, mulching, cleanup, planting, weeding, invasive species removal, nature exploration, and much more. 

More volunteer opportunities are listed on the Green Seattle Partnership’s event calendar here.
