Walking with Trees and Water

  • Naomi Joe Coffee 2101 Jefferson Avenue Tacoma, WA, 98402 United States (map)

Water is one of the key components of life. In Tacoma, it falls from the sky, flows in our rivers, and calls us to the Puget Sound. Water is a key part of our ecosystems and it is crucial that it stays clean. Trees play an important role in watershed pollution mitigation and are an important part of how water moves in our urban landscape. On this walk, we will learn from Sarah Low and Barry Goldstein about how trees are managed in a downtown landscape and their importance in reducing pollution carried by stormwater runoff. 

Dress appropriately for PNW summer weather. Prepare to walk approximately 2 miles on pavement, up and down stairs and steep streets.

  • Talk is in English and will be amplified. The walk will be two miles on wide paved sidewalks that change elevation and stairs. No bathrooms. Urban street noise.
