Seward Park was chosen as an urban center site because of its rich diversity of natural habitat as well as human culture, with tens of thousands of people visiting this nearly 300-acre park, rich with old growth forest and freshwater shoreline, every year. We are proud to say that we have achieved what we set out to do: serving up to 15,000 people in our community each year with excellent free and low-cost science and nature programs. In the past year, we increased the number of students served by nearly 50 percent and helped restore more than 10,000 square feet of habitat here at the park. 
Are you a Seward Park enthusiast with an interest in Pacific Northwest ecology? Do you like to share what you know with others? Are you over 18 years of age? If you answered "YES!" to all of these questions and are looking for a meaningful volunteer experience, our Master Urban Naturalist (MUN) program may be your match! The MUN program provides FREE naturalist training workshops and certification in exchange for 10 hours of donated service.
