Dozens of volunteers spent their morning Saturday wrestling with vines and branches during a cleanup at Picnic Point Park in unincorporated Edmonds, aimed at improving the marine habitat and restoring a vital salmon run at Picnic Point Beach.
Organized jointly by the Olympic Fly Fishers of Edmonds and the Snohomish County Healthy Forest Project, the work focused on clearing out English ivy and Himalayan blackberry, two common invasive species that can disrupt the local ecosystem. The discarded remains were left onsite to be composted.
