Join MyRWA and the City of Everett in working towards a healthy habitat and heat resilience at Gateway Park! Volunteers can help with infill planting as part of our forested wetland restoration and bare root tree planting around the parking lot area to add to Everett's urban tree canopy.

Location Details: Bathrooms, water, and cell service are available. We will meet at the grassy area across the street from Blinds to Go. A more detailed map with meeting location will be sent out via email a week before the event. We will be working in the wetland area which has uneven, informal paths.

Activity Details: Volunteers will be asked to carry supplies, wrap and secure plastic tubing around young trees, pull invasive species by hand, and assemble and tie reeds together for nest building. If you have any accessibility concerns about these activities, please reach out to daria.santollani@mysticriver.org — our events are flexible and we would love to chat about ways we can assist your participation!
