The Friends of the Seminary Hill Natural Area will host their annual Autumn Work Party at Centralia’s hillside forest this Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon, rain or shine.
All are invited to attend. Free coffee, cookies and sandwiches will be available for workers.
Attendees are urged to wear sturdy footwear and thick gloves. The Friends group will have some tools and gloves available, but volunteers are invited to bring their own tools as well, particularly loppers, shovels, rakes and wheelbarrows.
A variety of guided projects will be available for workers of all ages, skills and energy levels. These will include removing invasive English ivy, trail maintenance, spreading bark on the “grand staircase” entrance to the natural area, trash removal, blackberry clipping and more.
To learn more about the work involved at Saturday’s event, contact Ross Olson at 360-623-2334.
