Volunteers are needed to help plant native trees and shrubs at the Tukwila Pond Wetland Buffer Enhancement Project on February 28, 2009, starting at 9:00 am.

The project will improve the habitat for birds, small mammals and frogs along the recently restored wetland located on Andover Park West, south of Strander on the southeast side of Tukwila Pond.

Funded in part by a “WaterWorks” grant from King County’s Department of Natural Resources and Parks, the project will enhance public access, and is part of an overall plan to improve water quality, wildlife habitat, and public enjoyment at Tukwila Pond
