This year, the Duwamish Longhouse is reforesting the hillside behind the Longhouse and Seattle Parks Department is restoring 40 acres in the West Seattle Green Belt.
Our project's objectives are:
* to restore the Longhouse's property's ecosystem by providing a place to sustain native food and medicine, habitat and wildlife in relation to the Duwamish culture,
* to engage the public and raise educational awareness of the Duwamish native culture and its relationship to the restored ecosystem, and
* to work with community partners to increase public awareness of urban reforestation stewardship.
