Upcoming Events
Seattle Parks / Forest Steward Collab
This will be week nine assisting Seattle Parks & Rec Forest Steward Heather Scott along her section of the Duwamish Head Greenspace. Last time we cleared English Ivy, Blackberry, Clematis and other invasives to prep the area for Heather to replace with native plants. This week we’ll continue on working along the back hillside and up by the green space cistern. Although mainly a Spruced event, there’s always garbage to be had too.
ALL HANDS / Neighborhood Cleanup Series: White Center
Join us for Seattle Adopt a Street’s 2024 All Hands Neighborhood Cleanup Series! We're sprucing up 5 Seattle neighborhoods with 10 community cleanups from March to October, focusing on removing litter and graffiti. Kick off the inaugural cleanup season on Saturday, March 30 in White Center.
Spruced! / Seacrest Park
This will be our fourth cleanup with Seattle Parks gardeners. This week we’ll meet back at Seacrest Park where Marination and the Water Taxi are. Parks gardeners are setting some priorities leading into Spring and Summer and we’ll be helping support some of their tougher labor needs.
Spruced! / WS Bridge Trail
We'll continue hitting the WS Bridge Trail we've been assisting SDOT with the past several months. We'll be on the east side of S. Spokane St. where there's a little park that continues to need some Sprucing. After coming over the Lower Bridge get in the right hand lane and turn into the lot. You’ll see the van from the road and I will try to get cones up on the side walk where you’ll turn in.
Saturday Sunrise Cleanup
Join us Saturday mornings at 7am for sunrise cleanups on Alki Beach. We start at the Statue of Liberty plaza next to the Bathhouse. My brother and I meet there most Saturday mornings, walk the beach and then grab a coffee afterwards. Spring to Summertime are especially in need of helping hands. Family-friendly, all are welcome.

Pathfinder Encampment / Haul Out
Group member Matthew alerted us to an abandoned camp a stone’s throw from Pathfinder K-8 in the West Duwamish Greenbelt.

Spruced! / Me-Kwa-Mooks / Molly’s Birthday Celebration!
We’ll celebrate Molly’s upcoming birthday on Wednesday with some donuts and another Me-Kwa-Mooks Sprucing. This will be day 2 in an ongoing series heading into Spring, so come down and give the birthday girl and the shoreline some love.
Spruced! / Me-Kwa-Mooks
Molly reached out to see about getting the promenade across from Me-Kwa-Mooks Spruced up heading into Spring, so we’ll start a series down there this week as we await a meeting at Hamilton Viewpoint next week to discuss that project. We’ll hit this one twice this week (Monday & Wednesday) and see what we can get done. We’ll likely need to keep it on rotation for the near term to get all the ivy and blackberry out as it’s pretty overgrown.
