Last weekend we put the COMMUNITY in Newberry Wood

Last weekend we put the COMMUNITY in Newberry Woods Community Forest! Thank you to all our wonderful community members who joined us for our first forest tour and meeting to discuss the future of Newberry Woods.

The forest tour brought almost as much beautiful blue sky as it did beautiful people and we are excited for the multitude of uses that community members thought up for Newberry Woods at Planning Meeting #1.

While the two remaining forest tours are full, there are still openings to join the community meeting series at Silverdale Library. The future uses of the community forest depend on YOU! If you have an interest in natural spaces in the Kitsap community, we encourage you to join

You can find more information and sign up for a meeting at https://greatpeninsula.org/events/

This past Saturday GPC’s Conservation Manager Ali Querin celebrated the “un-groundbreaking” for Phase III of the North Creek Salmon Heritage Site, at which GPC now holds a conservation easement.

According to timeanddate.com (one of our dorky favorites), the amount of daylight in Bremerton during the upcoming winter solstice is seven and a half shorter than during the June summer solstice. It's also interesting that the earliest sunset was back on December 10th.

Have you ever been through the community of Roseda

Have you ever been through the community of Rosedale? GPC's small Lay Wildrose Preserve hugs the inlet, home to seals, otters, salmon, bald eagles, and the many wild roses that gave Rosedale its name in 1883.
The history of this place runs deep... literally! Last week GPC staff planted native plants in a layer of soil covering an old blacktop road (shout out to @rosedalegardensgigharbor for the beautiful plants).

Cross your fingers for their survival!
