Join the Friends of Madrona Woods in their restoration efforts every 3rd Saturday of the month. This month, volunteers are needed for installing native plants.
Madrona Woods is a 9.2-acre hillside in the city-owned Madrona Park near Lake Washington, due east of downtown Seattle. It is named both for the city neighborhood in which it located and for the Pacific madrona trees which grow on the site. Its eastern boundary is Lake Washington Boulevard and its western boundary is 38th Avenue. It stretches from Spring Street on the north to Columbia Street on the south.
People of all ages, talents, and backgrounds volunteer to restore Madrona Woods. Friendly, experienced workers are happy to share their knowledge and discoveries with new volunteers, and working in the woods is an effective way to learn about plants and ecosystems.
