Volunteers gather to salvage plants for habitat restoration throughout King CountyOn Saturday, February 5, volunteers spent the day in Black Diamond working as part of King County’s Native Plant Salvage Program. Volunteers, working at the site of a future YarrowBay development, uprooted and repotted hundreds of plants for transport to habitat restoration sites.
“It was great to have so many local volunteers pitching in,” said David McDuff of YarrowBay Holdings. “This effort is essential to ensuring that the work we do continues to honor the amazing natural surroundings that make Black Diamond such a wonderful place to work and live.” Thanks again to everyone who helped make this event a success.

“Thanks so much to the 75 volunteers who spent Saturday salvaging and potting plants. We could not do this work without you,” said Cindy Young, ecologist with King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks. Once relocated, these plants will aid in shading streams, reducing erosion, and providing habits to local wildlife.
