What we’re about
Swamp Creek Habitat Restoration Project is a community-led habitat restoration project sponsored by Sno-King Watershed Council in collaboration with the City of Kenmore. We work in Wallace Swamp Creek Park with the goal of restoring native vegetation to improve biodiversity and habitat for native wildlife and revitalize the Swamp Creek Watershed. Our current stewardship is focused on removing invasive species from the park to make way for later native plantings.
We do this work on the ancestral land of the first peoples of this region–the Coast Salish, the Stillaguamish, the Duwamish, the Suquamish, the Sammamish–peoples who have stewarded this land since time immemorial and who are very much alive and present as good stewards of the land to this day. It is with gratitude to and because of them that we have the honor of tending to this land with the hope of restoring it to a healthy, native ecosystem where native insects, fish, birds, and mammals, including humans, can be sustained and thrive for generations to come.
Alone we can do a little. Together we can do a lot.
Families and all ages welcome! Environmental stewards under the age of 18, please bring a parent or guardian along with you.
We would love to have you!
