Join EarthCorps, the Green Seattle Partnership, Friends of Queen Anne Parks and the City of Seattle Parks and Recreation Department as we work to restore NE Queen Anne Greenbelt. The Greenbelt is a combination of two new parks: Trolley Hill Park and MacLean Park. Trolley Hill Park is home to a P-Patch and picnic area while MacLean Park commands a terrific view of the Cascades and Mt. Rainer. These parks are home to beautiful and interesting native plants that are being threatened by non-native, invasive plants such as English ivy. At our events we will remove invasive plants, plant native trees and shrubs and perform restoration site maintenance.
