Stewardship Work Party: The Great Scotch Broom Pull!
July 27 , 8:30 am – 11:00 am
Location: Newberry Woods Community Forest, Silverdale
Join Great Peninsula Conservancy for the “The Great Scotch Broom Pull” at Newberry Woods Community Forest! We are thrilled to announce an exciting stewardship work party series to help open the new community trail at Newberry Woods Community Forest! This is our first big push to make this beautiful trail accessible to the public, and we need your help to make it a success.
The Newberry Woods Community Forest spans 202 acres and contains 1.5 miles of the salmon-bearing Little Anderson Creek. This incredible forest, just north of the Newberry Hill Heritage Park, is home to trees that are over 100 years old and serves as a vital wildlife corridor to Hood Canal. It provides essential habitat for many birds, mammals, and other native wildlife.
Our goal is to maintain a stunning view of Mt. Baker and Hood Canal by removing invasive Scotch broom so the area remains a space for all to enjoy.
Important Note: Please be aware that NW Newberry Hill Rd will be closed from June 20 to Sept 3. This closure may impact travel time to and from the meet-up location. We will keep registered attendees apprised of any updates via email. Learn more here.
