The Koma Kulshan Chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society regularly holds field trips and volunteer events in the community; typically free and open to the public! This is the second in our six-part Intro Plant Walk series.

Let’s take a stroll through the shady Padden Creek Trail in Fairhaven. Your guide will help you identify common trees and shrubs, and you’ll also learn some of their unique plant “personalities” and how they interact in this dynamic urban green space.

These introductory plant identification walks feature an easy pace and will each last about two hours. All walks are free and no registration is required, just show up at the meeting spot. People of all ages and experience levels are welcome. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes that may get wet. Each walk stands alone, or attend them all to get a free mini-course on plant identification.

Location: Meet at the stage at Fairhaven Village Green.
