COMING SOON: Nature Consortium Earth Day

Brown is back! Legendary nature and arts organization Nature Consortium returns for one day only!

It’s the 20th anniversary of the Green Seattle Partnership and to celebrate we’re honoring our roots as Nature Consortium, whose restoration and eco-arts programs merged into DNDA nearly a decade ago. 

Join us at Pigeon Point Park for our Earth Day event. We’ll be continuing the restoration of this important park in the West Duwamish Greenbelt, Seattle’s largest remaining forest. Volunteers led by staff from DNDA and Nature Consortium will help remove invasive plants and spread wood chip mulch. We’ll have arts activities and live music in the woods featuring familiar faces from the Nature Consortium era.

Miyawaki Forest at Longfellow Creek

Update 1.28.2025: This event is currently full and cannot accept more volunteers.

Help carry out a UW project establishing a Miyawaki Forest at our Longfellow Creek Central Forest site! The Miyawaki method is a method for establishing a fast-growing grove of native plants, intended to simulate the layers of a natural forest in a small area. You and your fellow volunteers will participate in this conservation work led by DNDA’s Nature team and UW. Restoration work includes removing invasive plants, planting native species, and mulching new plantings, depending on time of year and the restoration progress in each site.
