• Cumberland Creek Butterfly Bush Pull

Help us pull invasive butterfly bush from our Cumberland Creek property! The property was acquired primarily to protect the salmon habitat found in the swales and side channels present on the property, and as a final part of a larger restoration effort to allow the Skagit to reclaim the Cumberland peninsula. The majority of the property features young forest, dominated by deciduous trees and a few interspersed conifers. Cumberland Creek is used as habitat for salmon, coyotes, deer, elk, beaver and various birds. It also has great access to the Skagit River and a trail network! Skagit Land Trust will provide tools, gloves, and refreshments. Please bring a water bottle and reusable cup for hot beverages. Dress for the weather and wear rubber boots if you have them - this site can be quite muddy! We will provide training for the task at hand. More details and RSVP form at website below.
