Volunteer at the Duwamish Hill Preserve in Tukwila
Join us January 15th from 10am to 1pm -
Join volunteers to help restore this culturally significant park preserve and honor the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. Event activities include invasive weed removal and other restoration projects.
Upcoming Events: Volunteer events are held on this property the 3rd Saturday of every month.
About the Property:
In 2001, 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.
For additional information contact, volunteer@cascadeland.org.
