Boeing Bothell employees came out on Friday, June 3rd to help restore North Creek Forest as part of World Environment Day. 37 volunteers helped remove invasive weeds like Himalayan blackberry, reed canarygrass, and morning glory. Removing the invasive weeds makes room for our existing native plants to thrive, which will help the restoration site continue to grow into a more mature forest. Furthermore, future volunteers will now be able to spread mulch over the cleared areas, which helps suppress invasive weed growth. After 4 hours of work, Boeing volunteers cleared at least 2,000 square feet of invasive weeds from the lower restoration sites, contributing 86 hours in the process. Thanks again to all of the Boeing Bothell employees who helped restore North Creek Forest!
