Naturally, a hit: Nature Consortium’s jampacked benefit brunch

| Environment | Fauntleroy | How to help | West Seattle news

12:54 PM: The Nature Consortium‘s celebrating its success and looking to its future right now at The Hall at Fauntleroy, during its second annual Benefit Brunch (co-sponsored by WSB). In the capacity crowd, we spotted King County Executive Dow Constantine, State Sen. Joe McDermott, and Seattle School Board rep Steve Sundquist. The Nature Consortium is a West Seattle-based nonprofit, headquartered at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center in North Delridge, and its main work involves restoring the West Duwamish Greenbelt – with lots of volunteer help! Their work parties are listed on greenseattle.org – lots of chances to help (including the upcoming Duwamish Alive! events in honor of Earth Day, April 17). 1:54 PM: Added photos – including, at right, NC board member Becca Fong.

Thanks for posting, and for sponsoring this worthy local group! The brunch was a fun time!

Mark your calendars: to set aside the 3rd weekend in August (SAT-SUN 21, 22) for the Nature C’s Arts in Nature Festival! The best kept ‘secret’ in Seattle, takes place at Camp Long. Wonderful Artists and Musicians and Dancers, and more! in an idyllic setting ~ cost is only $5 donation! see NatureC.org ;-)

I have enjoyed watching this group grow and flourish over the years since c.1998 – they (staff, volunteers, all!) are a West Seattle treasure!

Sorry, comment time is over.
