Fall is planting season, and there’s no better way to celebrate than by joining Tukwila Parks and the Green Tukwila Partnership for Green Tukwila Day. This year’s event focuses on planting camas, a culturally significant plant of the Salish people that honors Indigenous traditions while helping restore native habitat across our community.

Spend the morning outdoors with neighbors, enjoy live music by The Buskings, and get your hands in the soil as you help prepare the land for winter. All ages are welcome, and everything you need—tools, snacks, and plenty of good energy—will be provided. Come be part of the movement to keep Tukwila green and growing.

Since 2017, the City of Tukwila has been part of the Green Cities Partnership—working with local organizations and community members to care for natural open spaces. Tukwila’s own effort, the Green Tukwila Partnership, is supported by Forterra, EarthCorps, Duwamish Alive Coalition, Partner in Employment, the Service Board, Dirt Corps, King County Parks, and dedicated volunteers.

Together, we’re restoring 138 acres of urban forest over the next 20 years—creating healthier parks for all.
