My big Earth Day project this year was hooking up with the UW Restoration Ecology crowd to do a restoration project on Snoqualmie Indian Tribe land near Snoqualmie. It was just a small corner of their property that had been logged long ago, but it was covered with blackberry bush. The group had previously cleared one of the hillsides so today's group just had one hillside to go. My job was to pitchfork the piles of stems and roots up to the top of the hill. As you can see from the picture, we did quite a number on the hill. The crew will follow up later this week and plant the 2nd hillside with seedlings. It will be fun to check back in now and then to see how it looks.
