Volunteer at the Duwamish Hill Preserve in Tukwila

Join us on September 15th from 10am to 1pm -

Join volunteers to help restore this culturally significant park preserve.  Event activities include invasive weed removal and other restoration projects.

About the Property:
In 2001, Forterra (formerly the Cascade Land Conservancy), the City of Tukwila, and a local citizen group formed a partnership to work for the preservation of an undeveloped parcel of land on the Duwamish River.  The property will be managed as a public open space preserve devoted to the interpretation of the site’s Native American cultural significance and other aspects of Duwamish River Valley natural and cultural history.  The Hill is culturally significant for its association with southern Puget Sound Salish oral tradition and history, as a key location in the stories collectively known as the “Epic of the Winds.”

Please come out and contribute to this effort!

What to bring:
Please remember to dress for the weather.  Suggested Dress: Boots or comfortable athletic shoes, work clothes, rain gear and appropriate layers.  Volunteers should bring a refillable water bottle.  Snacks, drinks, tools and gloves will be provided.

Where: We will meet at the parking lot at the base of the preserve at 10am. The address of the preserve and parking lot is 3800 S 115th St Tukwila, WA 98168
