Work party slated
CHIMACUM — The Jefferson Land Trust will host a work party at Chimacum Commons at 10 a.m. Thursday.
Participation is free.
Earlier this year, community volunteers and Chimacum School students helped plant almost 600 native trees and shrubs in a buffer along Chimacum Creek on this piece of farmland.
On Thursday, volunteers will help land trust staff assess plant survival so as to plan for replanting if necessary.
The driveway leading to Chimacum Commons is on Rhody Drive directly across from Cenex in Chimacum.
A Jefferson Land Trust sandwich board sign will point to parking area in the field.
