So we were happy to get our hands dirty with <a href=\"https:\/\/tilthalliance.org\/\">Tilth Alliance<\/a> on a recent, typically beautiful summer Saturday in Seattle. Pacifica attorneys, staff, and family members joined other Tilth Alliance volunteers at the <a href=\"https:\/\/tilthalliance.org\/our-work\/urban-farms-gardens\/rainier-beach-urban-farm-wetlands\/\">Rainier Beach Urban Farm &amp; Wetlands<\/a>, a working farm, garden, and education center that serves the Rainier Beach and wider Seattle communities.<\/p>\n<p>The city park, which is owned by Seattle Parks and Recreation and co-operated by Seattle Tilth and the Friends of Rainier Beach Urban Farm &amp; Wetlands organizations, is Seattle\u2019s largest urban farm. Aside from being a lovely place to go for a walk on a nature trail and revel in blooming flowers, fruiting trees, and thriving organic produce, the Urban Farm &amp; Wetlands is also a place to learn about organic food, gardening, and other environmental education topics. In addition, it offers free organic produce to the community via its two U-pick gardens, and sells food via its community supported agriculture program and farm stand.<\/p>\n<p>After learning more about the Urban Farm &amp; Wetlands, we dug in to help clear bindweed, English Ivy, blackberries, and other weeds from a rain garden and the apiary, and helped construct a trellis in the vegetable gardens.<\/p>\n<p>Volunteer opportunities abound at Rainier Beach Urban Farm &amp; Wetlands and with the wider Tilth Alliance organization, which is working \u201cto build a sustainable, healthy, and equitable food future\u201d for Washingtonians. We encourage you <a href=\"https:\/\/tilthalliance.org\/about-us\/our-story-priorities\/\">to learn more about the organization<\/a> and consider supporting their work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We value community service at Pacifica, and we also have quite a few avid gardeners in our ranks.
