The Green Snoqualmie Partnership will host a volunteer event to plant trees and native plants to restore a section of the forest near Borden Park, location map here, on Saturday, March 7, 9am-12pm.

Through the Green Snoqualmie Partnership, an initiative to restore and steward Snoqualmie’s forested parks and natural areas, thousands of square feet of invasive plants have been removed and numerous trees planted. The Green Snoqualmie Partnership continues the region’s forest legacy and invites people of all ages to get outside, have fun, and engage in helping restore our green spaces.
