Activities

Do you want to plant trees and shrubs to help Snoqualmie's Urban Forest adapt to a changing climate?

On Green Snoqualmie Day... YOU CAN! Work together with fellow community members to plant Snoqualmie's Urban Forestry Climate Change Adaptation Demonstration Forest (CCADF). Not only will you DO something on Green Snoqualmie Day, but you will also learn and be inspired to find out more about what you can do to steward and adapt YOUR neighborhood urban and community forest!

Snoqualmie's Climate Change Adaptation Forest is an initiative to reforest a strip of land that previously contained a row of homes damaged by flooding. For the past two years, volunteers have planted trees and shrubs using the strategy of assisted migration: drought-adapted shore pines from Washington's cliffs and coasts, Douglas-firs from Oregon, creeping Oregon-grape from eastern Washington, etc. These, in combination with Snoqualmie's naturally adapted plants, will support Snoqualmie’s urban forest in adapting to a changing climate. This year, Green Snoqualmie will pilot seed-based restoration, which involves broadcasting native grass and wildflower seeds that will build soil, shade tree saplings, and provide pollinator habitat. Using cutting-edge resistance, resilience, and transition strategies, we can and will keep our forests healthy today and for generations to come!

This family-friendly event welcomes people of all ages and abilities. Tools, training, and pizza are provided! Plan to arrive by 8:45 AM.

Whether you live in Snoqualmie, the Snoqualmie Valley or somewhere near, we invite you to join us on Green Snoqualmie Day 2026! Hope to see you there!
