Stillman Creek Riparian Preserve Stewardship Party

May 5 – Cancelled

This event has been cancelled. We hope you will join us next Saturday May 7 at Darlin Creek Preserve.

We love Stillman Creek Riparian Preserve! It is big, beautiful, and our work is gratifying. The last two times we went there, several volunteers said it was their favorite stewardship party yet. In this event, we will be continuing to remove plant protectors from 7-year old native trees. The weather will (probably) be good, and the flowers will be in bloom. Join us for a fun day outside on Stillman Creek, right before its confluence with the Chehalis River.

This preserve is about 40 minutes south of Olympia, and we encourage groups to come so they can carpool. In addition to going to a Capitol Land Trust preserve, you can also see a new part of rural Washington.

Thursday, May 5
10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Stillman Creek Riparian Preserve, Curtis
