Spend a Friday with EarthCorps and the Green Seattle Partnership at Frink Park.  We’ll teach you all you need to know about invasive and native plants and then we will head to the forest to yank out the bad guys!  Don’t miss this opportunity to check out and help protect a great grove of red-orange barked madrone trees. If you give us the chance, we’ll tell you more than you ever wanted to know about every native plant you see! Come meet some cool people and do your part to keep this beautiful place beautiful.
