Work Party at Foulweather Blufff

  • The Nature Conservancy in Washington 74 Wall Street Seattle, WA, 98121 United States (map)

Volunteers will help pull new and emerging policeman's helmet along the shoreline at Foulweather Bluff Nature Preserve. Policeman's helmet reproduces by seed. Each plant can produce up to 800 seeds. The seeds are ejected over 20 feet from the capsule. Seeds can germinate underwater and can be viable for 18 months or more. An annual with a shallow root system, this plant pulls up easily.

 Foulweather Bluff is located near Hansville on the north end of the Kitsap Peninsula. There is a one-mile hike through the forest with 20 feet of elevation gain before emerging onto the sandy beach. Due to parking limitations, this event will be capped at six volunteers. Volunteers are responsible for their own transportation. This is a family friendly event.
