Jennie Grant, President & Founder, Goat Justice League, and a Seattle Tilth instructor “The prudent man does not make the goat his gardener,” says an old Hungarian prov- erb, and it certainly is hard to imagine how a goat could beautify your garden. However, a farm animal “garden room” adds tremen- dous interest to your yard, and with a hand- some goat shed and lots of wood chips, it lends a certain charm. Goats are always up to something interesting–relaxing in the sun, chewing their cud, or trying figure out a way to break out of their yard and eat your prize rose bushes.

  • Comprehensive List of Seattle Parks Bonus Feature for Discovering Seattle Parks: a Local’S Guide by Linnea Westerlind
    COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF SEATTLE PARKS BONUS FEATURE FOR DISCOVERING SEATTLE PARKS: A LOCAL’S GUIDE BY LINNEA WESTERLIND Over the course of writing Discovering Seattle Parks, I visited every park in Seattle. While my guidebook describes the best 100 or so parks in the city (in bold below), this bonus feature lists all the parks in the city that are publicly owned, accessible, and worth a visit. Each park listing includes its address and top features. I skipped parks that are inaccessible (some of the city’s greenspaces have no paths or access points) and ones that are simply not worth a visit (just a square of grass in a median). This compilation also includes the best of the 149 waterfront street ends managed by the Seattle Department of Transportation that have been developed into mini parks. I did not include the more than 80 community P-Patches that are managed by the Department of Neighbor- hoods, although many are worth a visit to check out interesting garden art and peek at (but don’t touch) the garden beds bursting with veggies, herbs, and flowers. For more details, links to maps, and photos of all these parks, visit www.yearofseattleparks.com. Have fun exploring! DOWNTOWN SEATTLE & THE Kobe Terrace. 650 S.

  • Connections Spring/Summer 2014
    SEATTLE PARKS FOUNDATION Connections SPRING/SUMMER 2014 Transforming the Cheasty Greenspace When Mary DeJong and her husband Joel, moved to Seattle more than a decade ago, they fell in love with their neighbor- hood. “We knew we needed to be here,” DeJong says, stand- ing outside her home in Rainier Valley. “We also knew that we wanted to participate in something, and at the time we couldn’t really name what that something was.” That something turned out to be half a block away, just up her street: 10 acres of forest between the Lockmore neighborhood on Beacon Hill and Columbia City. This is the Cheasty Greens- pace at Mountain View, whose slopes are now covered with ferns Mary DeJong at a restoration work and other young native plants. A winding footpath reveals peek-a-boo views of the Cascades party. Photo: Tom Reese and takes hikers past benches made of cedar logs. It’s a place where DeJong and her daughter, Anna, hike (and where Anna gets excited when she finds a slug). It’s an escape for DeJong’s two boys, who outfit themselves with whistles and play. It’s also a destination for groups from the nearby Boys & Girls Club and the Refugee Women’s Alliance, who participate in wilderness camps. But back in 2003, when it was just DeJong, her husband, and a black Labrador named Jackson, this place looked totally different. “It was a drape of darkness,” DeJong recalls. “We had a dog, and we thought, ‘Oh, let’s take him into the woods.’ And it was on that first walk when we discovered, ‘Oh, this isn’t a wel- coming place.’” The place was thick with blackberries and curtains of English ivy.

Dept. of Parks and Recreation Title Seattle Parks Superintendent's Subject Files Dates 1936-1993 (inclusive) 19361993 Quantity 55.8 cubic feet, (140 boxes) Collection Number 5802-01 Summary Records related to the administration of the parks system and recreation programs. Repository Seattle Municipal Archives Seattle Municipal Archives Office of the City Clerk City of Seattle PO Box 94728 98124-4728 Seattle, WA Telephone: 206-233-7807 Fax: 206-386-9025 [email protected] Access Restrictions Records are open to the public. Languages English Historical Note The Department of Parks and Recreation maintains the City's parks, shorelines, and boulevards; and administers community centers, public golf courses, and other athletic and cultural facilities. Seattle's first park was established in 1884 after David Denny donated land to the City for that purpose. At that time, a three-member park committee, with limited authority, was created to manage the nascent park system. A Board of Parks Commissioners was established in 1890 with control over all public parks and authority to appoint a Parks Superintendent. In 1896, the City Charter created the position of Superintendent of Streets, Sewers and Parks. The Parks Department became a separate entity in 1904. In 1926, a City Charter amendment abolished the position of Superintendent, distributing its responsibilities between the Head Gardener and the Landscape Architect. A 1948 City Charter amendment required the Board of Park Commissioners to appoint a park superintendent to administer the department. In 1967, another City Charter Amendment reconstituted the Board as an advisory body to the Mayor and City Council, changed the agency name to Department of Parks and Recreation, and placed fiscal and operational administration under the superintendent.

Superintendent’s Report Superintendent Bounds and Deputy Superintendent Brooks were at the National Recreation and Park Association Conference, held this year in Seattle. Nearly 10,000 people from all across the United States registered for the conference. Ms. Devoto reported on the following items. For more information on Seattle Parks and Recreation, please visit the web pages at http://www.seattle.gov/parks/. South Lake Union Park: The large ship’s saw in the boatyard area south of the Armory will be relocated to the North Lake Union Metro Dock site. This results from collaboration between Northwest Seaport and the Northwest Schooner Society, which is the tenant at the Metro Dock. Longer term plans are also to relocate the shed that covered the saw, but for now that covered area will be used for display purposes. Center for Wooden Boats is also working with NW Seaport, using the workshop for CWB projects and classes. In addition, the Pro Parks Levy Oversight Committee voted to apply $300,000 out of the Pro Parks large project category fund balance to the South Lake Union project to help fund the pedestrian bridge.
