May 4
Randall Preserve is located at the southern-most end of Puget Sound on Eld Inlet, and is CLT’s first public access preserve. Although Randall Preserve was heavily impacted by past human uses, Capitol Land Trust has done extensive restoration to provide native habitat for the many migratory and indigenous bird species inhabiting the property. It is well used by people bird-watching on their lunch break or taking a quick stroll.
In this event, we will be pulling scotch broom on the peninsula between the preserve and Hwy 101. It is highly visible to passersby, and we want to start a trend: remove it before the seeds blow on neighboring lands. You will want to wear rubber boots to traverse tidelands during low tide. Join us for a fun and productive day among friends!
