Trash or Treasure? Join Seattle Neighborhoods, Seattle Public Utilities A Cleaner Alki Trash Walkin' and Mt. Baker Hub Alliance for an ALL HANDS clean-up on May 2, 2026 at 10am in celebration of Neighbor Day!

On Saturday, we will work side-by-side with Seattle City Council Members Foster, Lin, and Hollingsworth, Mayor Wilson, and the stellar community leaders who come to together on the regular to keep their neighborhoods clean for everyone to enjoy. Many of these groups organize through Seattle Public Utilities Adopt-a-Street program to receive the supplies needed so community can safely collect and dispose of waste.

Baker neighborhood. All supplies provided and there will be food! Will you find a treasure?! @mtbakerhub @a.cleaner.alki and Trash Walkin’ are our community hosts. See you there!

We would like to extend a warm welcome to the newest members of the Seattle Renters' Commission! This week, the City Council appointed three new commissioners and approved the reappointments of four current commissioners. More than half of all Seattle residents are renters. The Seattle Renters' Commission provides information and counsel to the City on issues and policies affecting renters and monitor legislation related to renters and renter protections.

Bees are buzzing. Buds are blooming. You know what that means; garden season has arrived! Celebrate spring at the Earth Day P-Patch Resource Fair, Saturday, April 25, from 10 AM to 1 PM at the Northwest African American Museum. From novice gardeners to seasoned green thumbs, this event has a little something for everyone and is free and open to all. See you there!

It's an Earth Day BIRTHDAY! 🎉🌎

Environmental Works was founded on the very first Earth Day in 1970 and rooted in the belief that caring for the environment is our shared responsibility and that design can grow real community change.

We recently collaborated with Environmental Works to share how Fire Station #7 was saved through grassroots organizing and people-powered action as part of our Historic Preservation Community Occupations series.

From strong roots to lasting impact, their work continues to shape Seattle today. Click link in bio to dig into the full story!
