The Native Plant Salvage Program provides low-cost native plants for revegetation projects such as Dept. of Natural Resources salmon restoration projects on streams, wetlands and estuaries. Native trees and shrubs that are removed from construction sites are stored at the Holding Facility until they can be replanted at project sites. Volunteers are needed to help care for the plants and maintain the Holding Facility. Volunteers at the Holding Facility re-pot salvaged plants, maintain existing trees and shrubs, and care for other plant materials such as shrub and tree cuttings or seedlings. Some knowledge of gardening or native plants is helpful but not essential.
Volunteers can schedule a weekly work session to fit their needs.
