GARDENERS, ECO-BUILDERS and VOLUNTEERS …
Are you interested in learning more about affordable green home construction?Want to assist with a sustainable landscape installation specially designed for Puyallup Tribal Elders?
Join this community building opportunity as we install native plants at the recently constructed Puyallup Tribal Elder Healthy Home located at 1415 E 32nd Street in Tacoma.
Volunteer support is needed on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday, March 17, 18 & 19 - each day from 1:00 p.m. - 7:00 pm
We'll be installing plants that have been salvaged from local forest properties, as well as native plant materials provided by the Washington State Dept of Transportation. Plants selected for the Elder Healthy Home have been chosen for their cultural, food, floral and other values that additionally benefit the environment in numerous ways.
Tools, gloves and refreshments will be provided. Volunteers may also receive one free salvaged native plant for every two hours that they contribute to the Elder Healthy Home landscape installation program from the Native Plant Salvage Alliance.
To learn more about this event, contact the Native Plant Salvage Alliance at 253-566-3342; or by e-mail at anna.thurston@ssstewardship.org.
