Issaquah is gearing up to celebrate Green Issaquah Day with a series of three tree planting events designed to engage the community in sustainability efforts. The events will occur at specific locations: Park Pointe, in collaboration with the Issaquah Alps, Anthology Open Space alongside the Lake Washington Urban Wildlife Refuge Partnership, and the East Sunset Way Trailhead. Each venue provides a unique opportunity for residents to contribute to local environmental initiatives. Participants can sign up to volunteer their time and effort, helping to enhance the city’s green spaces. This initiative highlights Issaquah's commitment to fostering a sustainable community and encourages residents to take part in ecological conservation activities.

By participating, community members not only contribute to the beautification of their neighborhoods but also promote biodiversity and environmental health. The events are part of a broader movement within the city to increase awareness about the importance of trees and green spaces in urban areas. As such, they represent a vital opportunity for residents to connect with nature and each other while making a positive impact on their environment.
