PPNW Seattle

The Seattle chapter of Pollinator Pathway NW is thriving! Outreach includes the Duwamish Alive Coalition and the Tulatuwx restoration site, formerly terminal 105 in Seattle. Friends of Tulatuwx works to reforest this property and develop it into a self sustaining habitat in an effort to bring back the salmon population to this portion of the river.

Miyawaki Forest Installation

PPNW will be on hand in October when the City begins installation of a Miyawaki forest on property along Little Bear Creek Parkway. (Read more about this project and learn about the Miyawaki Forest method). This fast growing urban forest will become a sanctuary for wildlife and pollinators. The biodiversity of plants and microorganisms within the forest will keep the soil healthy and the forest self-sustaining. This urban oasis will also feature pedestrian trails and art installations (Woodinville Glens).

Woodinville Glens

Walk into the urban forest and come upon a series of gardens and outdoor spaces with a common theme – the beauty and fragility of our natural environment.
Each of the spaces in Woodinville Glens will have a nature theme, such as . . . pollinators. A series of signs will direct and educate. There will be treasures to find as you wander into an urban man-made forest and lose yourself in nature.

Yard by Yard Project​​

Here is an exciting idea: Replace your lawn with native plants that will help conserve water and create healthy pollinator habitat. Pollinator Pathway NW and the Finn Hill Neighborhood Alliance received a grant to test this grassroots solution to preserving local watershed. If you are a Finn Hill resident and want to take part in this project, check out the details or contact lynne@finnhill.org

Woodinville Eastrail Corridor Project

The City of Woodinville is embarking on an ambitious project to transform a section of an unused rail line into a vibrant multi-use trail and corridor park. Community members, local organizations (including Pollinator Pathway NW!) and tribal governments will all play a part in determining how this space will be created.
Here is some info, and stay tuned for more!

Bee-utiful Woodinville!

To celebrate becoming a Bee City, the City of Woodinville sponsored a community art project. Pollinator themed fence panels were hung along the chain-link fence on the former Molbak’s site.
