Shoreline Arbor Day Volunteer Event This Weekend

SHORELINE, WA - Volunteers will help clean up Darnell Park on Saturday as part of Shoreline Arbor Day. Volunteers will be removing invasive weeds and planting native shrubs, according to the event hosts.

"While the exact tasks can vary, our projects focus on improving the forests and parks in our local cities. Healthy and thriving forests are vital to our community because they absorb and filter rain water, produce clean oxygen, provide living spaces for wildlife, and create a place for people to connect with the outdoors," the group EarthCorps wrote in a description of the event.

Volunteers should wear appropriate clothing, but items like gloves, tools, and snacks will be provided. For more information, visit the EarthCorps website.

The event begins at 10 a.m. Saturday at Darnell Park, 1125 N 165th St., Shoreline.
