At our most recent gathering, the OGD Partners, Mid Sound Fisheries, and Puget Soundkeeper shared a wonderful story of local success – hopefully one of many more to come, and we wanted to share it more broadly with folks here.

Together, they organized the first restoration of 2024 along Springbrook Creek in Renton, working to in-fill a section of the creek bank with over 100 shrubs and greatly improve the understory diversity of this riparian area.

Despite the rainy weather, over 25 youth and adults participated in this restoration event. They will be returning to work in this same area on March 9th and May 11th.
