Redmond, WA – The City of Redmond and the Cascade Land Conservancy joined together to form the Green Redmond Partnership. It is the Partnership’s goal to bring 1035 acres of Redmond’s forested parkland into active management over the next 20 years. Active management allows Redmond’s forests to remain an important element of the native ecosystem.
To ensure our forests stay healthy, volunteers are needed to work in the parks removing non-native invasive plants. The first work party of 2010 is Saturday, April 24 from 9am to noon at Viewpoint Park, 1840 NE 24th Street. No prior experience is necessary and tools and gloves are provided.
This event is part of a series of work parties – “Last Saturday” of each month through October. To plan ahead, following are the dates and locations for 2010:
May 29 – Westside Park, 5810 156th Avenue NE
June 26 – Grass Lawn Park, 7031 148th Avenue NE
July 31 – Farrel-McWhirter Farm Park, 19545 Redmond Road
August 28 – Idylwood Park, 3650 West Lake Sammamish Parkway NE
September 25 – Hartman Park, 17300 NE 104th Street (near Redmond Bike Park)
October 30 – Idylwood Park, 3650 West Lake Sammamish Parkway NE
