August Work Party: Newberry Woods Community Forest

Join Great Peninsula Conservancy for PART 2 of “The Great Scotch Broom Pull” at Newberry Woods Community Forest! We’re excited to host our second work party at the new Community Forest and build on the amazing volunteer work completed in July. The Newberry Woods Community Forest spans 202 acres and contains 1.5 miles of the salmon-bearing Little Anderson Creek. This incredible forest, just north of the Newberry Hill Heritage Park, is home to trees that are over 100 years old and serves as a vital wildlife corridor to Hood Canal. It provides essential habitat for many birds, mammals, and other native wildlife. Our goal is to maintain a stunning view of Mt. Baker and Hood Canal by removing invasive scotch broom from the walking trail, so the area remains a space for all to enjoy. When: Saturday, August 24th, from 8:30am-11:00am Where: Newberry Woods Community Forest, Silverdale, WA Questions?
