In the past 14 years, Friends of Madrona Woods has restored portions of Madrona Woods to a natural habitat. Before we began our work in the park, ivy, holly, blackberry, English laurel, and other exotic invasive plants smothered everything in their path. Now native plants (Oregon grape, ferns, red currant, huckleberry and trillium) thrive in areas we've cleared and revegetated.
There is more to do before the job is done, and maintenance becomes an increasingly important part of the work. That’s where you can help. There will be plants to buy and the need to hire some professional help in especially inaccessible places.
Your online donation will be made to the Madrona Neighborhood Association, the nonprofit which is our fiscal agent. Go to the Network for Good website to donate. Designate Friends of Madrona Woods.
