Come join Our Forest Fund, Kitsap County Parks and other volunteers on Saturday Nov 25, 2023 9am-12noon, for a special work party to interplant trees in newly thinned areas of the PGFHP. The forest we will be working in is part of the 756 acres of trees which the community saved in 2022.

This little tree could live for centuries!

This is a great way to work off some of that Thanksgiving turkey and pie, while improving wildlife habitat and forest resiliency.

If you’ve never planted trees before, this is your opportunity to learn about restorative forestry! Arno Bergstrom, the county forester emeritus, along with several Kitsap Parks Forest Stewards will teach you all you need to know to plant a legacy.

Meet at the main PGFHP trailhead (Bayview) parking lot on Hwy 104 at 9am. Dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes or boots and work gloves. Bring water and snacks if you so desire. Hot cider will be provided!

A tree planting shovel is a great tool to have!

If you have a narrow shovel, bring it along. Ten gallon buckets are helpful, too. See you there!
