Restoration Volunteer Event @ Norman Creek, Three Forks Natural Area
Please join the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe’s Habitat Restoration Team in the Three Forks Natural Area on Saturday, March 21st from 10am to 1pm as we restore riparian habitat! We will be removing harmful non-native plants and overgrown elk protections to continue improving floodplain forest habitat at the confluence of the Middle and North Forks of the Snoqualmie River. RSVP form below!
As we revisit this project many years in the making, continued attention will help us keep this restoration effort in good health. After clearing blackberry in 2018, and plantings by volunteers in 2019, this restoration site is on a more diverse and sustainable ecological path. Releasing native plants from the pressure of non-native blackberry and elk-caging will help this site continue to grow into the future.
Come learn about the continued work the Tribe is doing in the area, how this work connects to salmon and other wildlife, and reflect on the restoration we’ve completed together!
