SUMMARY:Make a Difference Day @ Cloud Mountain Farm Center with Growing Veterans
DESCRIPTION:Volunteer with Whatcom Land Trust and Growing Veterans for Make a Difference Day at Cloud Mountain Farm.\nJoin us for Make a Difference Day\, a national day of service that brings people together to give back to their communities. Volunteers will help steward the salmon-bearing streams that run through this amazing farmland\, working alongside Growing Veterans to remove invasive blackberry from the land near the stream\, which will help stabilize the banks and filter water. This work will ensure the area is in great shape as the farm transitions to its future permanent owners. \nWe highly encourage carpooling to this event. The fewer cars we park\, the more room we have to plant native species! You can share your ride or find one through this carpool resource. \n  \nEvent Details:\n\nRegistration is REQUIRED for this event: Sign up here! Once you register\, our Volunteer Coordinator\, Lauren Ralbovsky\, will send additional details a few days before the event. If you have questions in the meantime\, email lauren.r@whatcomlandtrust.org.\nWhat to expect: From 9 a.m. to noon\, volunteers will remove invasive species\, including digging\, bending\, and walking on uneven and potentially steep ground amid thorny brambles. From noon to 1 p.m.\, volunteers can tour the farm and\, depending on availability\, pick and take home fruit. If you’re interested in taking fruit home\, please bring a box or tote bag.\nHow to get there: Cloud Mountain Farm\, 6906 Goodwin Rd\, Everson\, WA 98247.\n\n  \nSite Info:\nCloud Mountain Farm has served Whatcom County’s agricultural community since its founding in 1978\, providing education and training for new and beginning farmers along with infrastructure that supports local food systems. Whatcom Land Trust recently accepted interim ownership of the 19-acre farm from Sustainable Connections\, with plans to permanently protect the land through a conservation easement that will limit development and place habitat protections along its stream. During this interim period\, the Trust is also supporting the farm’s processing\, aggregation\, distribution\, and storage services\, which local farms\, food banks\, and community organizations rely on. The Trust will then work with the Whatcom Community Foundation to find a long-term owner committed to keeping the farmland in agricultural use.

SUMMARY:Field Friday Planting @ Kelsey Reserve with Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association
DESCRIPTION:Volunteer at Kelsey Reserve for this month’s Field Friday.\nJoin Whatcom Land Trust and Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association to plant native trees and shrubs at Kelsey Nature Reserve in Ferndale. This area hosts wetlands\, forests\, meadows\, and streams. With your help\, we can continue building a resilient ecosystem for wildlife and future generations to enjoy. Come prepared to walk around some of the reserve to check out key aspects of the land. We hope to see you out on this epic site with us! \n  \nEvent Details:\nRegistration is REQUIRED for this event: Sign up here! \nOnce you register\, our Volunteer Coordinator\, Lauren Ralbovsky\, will send additional details 4 to 7 days before the event. If you have questions in the meantime\, email lauren.r@whatcomlandtrust.org. \nWhat to Expect: walking on uneven ground\, digging\, bending and stooping\, cutting plants\, and bushwacking. \nHow to get there: For this Field Friday\, we will meet in the Lake Terrell area\, with options to carpool from Bellingham. Exact location and carpooling details will be included in the pre-event email. \n  \nSite Info: \nThis special place was Whatcom Land Trust’s second protected property\, donated by Ruth Kelsey in 1992. Since then\, the Land Trust has expanded the reserve by adding a 51-acre parcel in 2024\, which completes protection of the Lake Terrell shoreline through its connection with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife lands. Today\, this protected land provides habitat for beaver\, songbirds\, coho\, and many other native wildlife species. While important stewardship work has already taken place\, there are still many opportunities for restoration. \n \n
