Green Seattle Day - A Day at Camp Long with EarthCorps

This past weekend on an awesome, rainy day in Seattle, the Beer View Mirrors volunteered with EarthCorps and several other organizations at Camp long.

Despite the weather, our team worked hard with the tasks we were given. Together, with all the other volunteers, we planted 790 plants and moved over 10 yards of mulch! Craziness! It was a great event, we learned about how most of Seattle's urban forests are invaded with non-native plants and how many organizations continue to work hard to destroy the invasive plants and replace them with native plants.

Our arms are now a little more buff, thanks to that HUGE mulch line! Never saw so much mulch before. The project was a success and the Beer View Mirrors were awesome - plus pigging out afterward on pizza and beer was rewarding!

Cheers!
