Restoration in Sehome Arboretum
Restoration in Sehome Arboretum
Our main project as a club is currently the restoration of Sehome Arboretum, an open space next to WWU campus, specifically focused on removal of non-native plant species, and planting of native plant species. We host weekly work parties for students to participate and make a difference. Join us HERE
Collaboration with Organizations
Collaboration with Organizations
We frequently participate in work parties hosted by other local organizations like Whatcom Land Trust, NSEA, the City of Bellingham, and others. Being part of the community at large means club members meet others in the community who share similar passions, thus creating new connections.
Restoration Speaker Series
Restoration Speaker Series
An ongoing bi-weekly speaker series hosted by the club on WWU Campus. We invite professionals in restoration and land stewardship to share their knowledge and lessons they have learned.
Work with Neighborhood Groups
Work with Neighborhood Groups
We aspire to work with neighborhood stewardship groups around Bellingham to build community and establish a repertoire with those who can support the club. This work also enables students to help make Bellingham Neighborhoods a more welcoming place to native fauna and insects.
Through our work, we aspire to build a community of students with a passion for restoration and land stewardship. We hope to help students network with professionals in the field, including but not limited to ecological restoration organizational directors, program managers, outreach coordinators, and restoration technicians. We also hope to connect students with professors at WWU who are interested in studying restoration work in order to promote student-led projects.
