<div><strong>Save This Ancient Tree</strong>
</div>
<div>My name is Katherine Nye, and I’m writing on behalf of my dear friend, Irene Trimble, who is leading an effort to save a cherished 100-year-old Golden Weeping Willow in Alki, West Seattle. For nearly a century this enormous, registered heritage Willow Tree has been a living sanctuary for wildlife and a peaceful retreat for all that visit. It’s even been the site of weddings beneath its golden canopy, freely shared with the community at no cost to anyone. But today, this beloved tree is in danger—and it urgently needs your help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What’s Happening</strong>
</div>
<div>Recently underground spring water has shifted, saturating the soil around the tree and its roots. A certified arborist has assessed the tree and confirmed that the continuous saturation of the soil will cause the roots to rot and the tree to die. Without urgent intervention, this extraordinary tree will not survive. The good news is the arborist confirmed that in stable, well-drained conditions, this willow could easily live for generations to come. It is structurally strong and healthly—the issue is not age, but water.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What Can Be Done To Help</strong>
</div>
<div>After consultation with both the arborist and a drainage engineering firm specializing in complex water flow issues, a targeted drainage plan has been developed. The system will redirect excess spring water away from the tree, stabilize soil moisture levels and can be installed without damaging the willow’s root system. The arborist will assist in the installation process, using specialized tools designed to protect and preserve the tree’s roots during the work. We have received a quote for $9,000 to complete this work. All funds raised will go directly toward labor and materials required to implement the drainage plan.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why This Matters</strong>
</div>
<div>Please consider contributing and sharing this campaign. Together, we can protect a living landmark and preserve a piece of West Seattle’s natural heritage for decades to come.
</div>
