The Clark County Public Works parks team and volunteer program are partnering with the community to add native plants to areas of natural landscaping in the park
VANCOUVER – Volunteers are needed to help with a restoration planting project from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Monday (Nov. 11) at Bosco Farm Neighborhood Park, located at 3601 Northeast 39th Street in Vancouver. The Public Works parks team and volunteer program are partnering with the community to add native plants to areas of natural landscaping in the park. Native plant communities reduce maintenance, provide nature spaces for park-goers to enjoy, and provide habitat for pollinators and wildlife.
Volunteers can sign up online at http://bit.ly/BoscoNP. Supplies will be provided. Volunteers should wear weather-appropriate clothing including long pants and closed-toe shoes or boots. Volunteers are encouraged to bring their own gloves, though some will be available.
