Join us for a fun, family-friendly afternoon celebrating native plants, good food, and great company. SSWNPS member and Parks Tacoma employee Alex Holmes will lead us through the trails of Titlow Park (and the restoration site within), sharing what birds call the park home—and how they connect to (and depend on) native plants. Lunch will be a BBQ with burgers (beef and veggie), hot dogs, sparkling water and soda provided. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share.
We will also have a kids’ table with activities set up and door prizes!
Please bring:- Your own reusable plate, utensils, cup, to help reduce waste
- A side or dessert dish to share
- Binoculars for the walk, if you have them
- A chair, if you prefer sitting in your own chair rather than at a picnic table
- OPTIONAL: Something nature related to donate for door prizes
Come hungry, curious, and ready to enjoy an afternoon outdoors with fellow native plant enthusiasts. Everyone is welcome, and we hope to see you there! Kindly RSVP to Jessica Hartsell atsouthsoundprograms@gmail.com
