The original work party
scheduled for May 12th has been changed to:


Saturday May 26th
11:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Map to North Creek Forest work site HERE


Several other events on campus necessitated this change. So please mark you calendar for the May 26th.


If you can't come to work please drop in anyway to thank the students for their hard work. This is the last big event for academic year 2012.

The team will be on site in reduced numbers on May 12th. So if you can't make the May 26th date please drop in for a couple of hours on the 12th between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM. If you have to pick between the two dates pick the 26th.

Creating a layered and richly diverse forest out of blackberries takes a lot of work. University students have designed this whole project beginning with a formal proposal to us, proposal modifications, a planting design with soil type and shade considerations, material acquisition and delivery, watering schedules, final stewardship maintenance recommendations and a final presentation.

Their success depends upon trust in one thing beyond their control: The Community. The students must trust that volunteers from the community will join them. Friends of NCF can only say, the response so far has literally brought tears to at least one student eyes. Thank you Bothell citizens for your unwavering support.
