Volunteer for Habitat Restoration in April

Members of the Green Tacoma Partnership invite Tacoman’s to celebrate spring by going outdoors and volunteering at a habitat restoration, or other event, throughout the month of April.

The Green Tacoma Partnership is a public private partnership between the City of Tacoma, Metro Parks, Tahoma Audubon Society, Cascade Land Conservancy, citizens, educational organizations, neighborhood groups, non-profits, faith-based organizations and businesses all working together to sustain a viable healthy network of natural spaces throughout Tacoma.

Get outside. Get dirty. Make a difference.
