Activities

Join Forterra and the Port of Tacoma in continuing the beautification of Gog-Le-Hi-Te, the last estuary on the Puyallup River before entering Puget Sound. We’ve done tons of work here to remove weeds and plant, and now we want to weed and mulch to make sure all of our native plants have the best chance to make it through the winter.

Tools, gloves, and instruction will be provided. This event is open to people of all ages and abilities.

All ages OK
