During my capstone project, I worked at Lincoln Park in West Seattle. Along with my teammate, Mary Durham, I removed invasive plants within the park. We also created six educational pamphlets on common invasive plants found in the park. These pamphlets were to promote environmental education and to motivate park users to get more involved within their community.
