The final Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden Care Patrol for 2011 will be this Tuesday, Dec. 6th from Noon – 4 p.m., and they’re looking for volunteers!

Here’s more from an email:

Calling all gardeners and their rakes!

This upcoming Tuesday 12/6 is our last Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden Care Patrol for 2011. The leaves have fallen all around, and we’ve been working to get them into manageable piles for YOU to come and help pick up.  There is raking for skilled and unskilled alike – no one will be turned away for lack of experience.  If raking is not your bag, we’ve got weeding, too – it’s been dry enough that we can still work the soil without worrying about compaction.  Such a dry November!

Also, you may be the first folks to see the new Rose Garden walls!  The concrete pour should happen on Monday, as long as the temps are above 40 degrees.

So bring your gloves, warm tea and a rain slicker (just in case!). We’ll be working from 12 noon to 4PM, and we’ll be delighted to see you there for as long as you can stay.

The Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden is located just west of the intersection of S. 138th & 24th Ave. S. in SeaTac, WA, and just south of the North SeaTac Park Community Center. The community center’s street address is 13735 24th Ave S., SeaTac WA.
