Join the Swinomish Tribal Community and People For Puget Sound at the 10th Annual Skagit Spartina Dig Day at Swadabs Park on the Swinomish Reservation.
This beautiful beachfront park is threatened by invasive Spartina grass, and we need volunteers to help us dig it out! Spend the day learning about native marsh plants and the weed Spartina that could damage the bird and fish habitat at this park if we don’t work together to remove it!
The Swinomish Canoe family will be on site following lunch to take volunteers on short tours of the Swinomish Channel aboard the tribe’s canoe. Get a little or a lotta muddy at this fun annual event and do something good for the Puget Sound!
