Earth Day Shoreline Clean-up

Make sure to register for the event here: https://www.clubsake.com/events/272827

Earth Day is a great time to help clean up our neighborhood and restore our green spaces! We'll provide food and refreshments to keep you fueled. One group of volunteers will pick up trash along Lakeside and Leschi Park. The other group will focus on removing invasive blackberries along the shoreline and replacing them with wood chips. We'll also provide tools and supplies (although feel free to bring your own gloves and tools if you prefer).

This particular piece of shoreline is part of the pier project (also known as the shore landscaping project). Seattle Parks has made progress with blackberry removal in this area but there is more to do, including removing the plants' roots to prevent them from coming back this summer.

This clean-up  event is a joint venture with the Seattle SAKE Paddling Club, Friends of Street Ends, and Washington Water Trails Association. Support, tools, and supplies are being provided by Seattle Parks, Seattle Department of Transportation, and Seattle Public Utilities Adopt-a-Street program.
