People for Puget Sound, who host the Eld Shoreline Community social network, are offering a free Shoreline Living workshop. The workshop is through a partnership between WSU Mason County Extension, Native Plant Salvage Foundation and People for Puget Sound and will teach shoreline residents how to preserve and replant shorelines to stabilize slopes, protect Puget Sound, and provide wildlife habitat. It will be held on Thursday, December 3rd, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Griffin Fire Hall, 3707 Steamboat Loop Rd NW.
Topics will include how to create a beautiful landscape that protects the shoreline and requires little maintenance once established, what you can do on your own and when to call in the experts, how to have a view and trees, too, and other shoreline stewardship tips.
