As you head out to enjoy the sunshine, remember to:

👒 Take breaks in the shade when you can.
🐾 Don't forget your pets need extra water too!

No air conditioning? No problem! Bremerton has plenty of beautiful places to help you cool off. Take a stroll along one of our scenic waterfront parks, enjoy the refreshing breeze by the water, or visit Kitsap Lake Park, where there is currently no active health advisory and a brand-new playground waiting to be explored!

And don't forget, the downtown fountains are up and running, making for a great spot to enjoy the day and snap a few photos. ⛲📸

🌱♻️ What an amazing day at Blueberry Park! ♻️🌱
On Saturday the Backyard Composting Workshop hosted by Washington State University Extension Master Gardeners was a huge success, bringing together gardeners, nature lovers, and community members for an afternoon full of learning, discussion, and hands-on education.

Participants explored the basics of composting, learned about soil health and the soil food web, and discovered practical ways to turn everyday food scraps and yard waste into nutrient-rich compost.
It was wonderful to see so many people eager to learn new skills and connect with others who share a passion for gardening and sustainability.

A big thank you to Kitsap Master Gardeners for sharing your expertise and providing this valuable educational opportunity at Blueberry Park.

• Friday, September 18th | 4:30 PM - 7:00 PM
• Saturday, September 19th | 10:00 AM - 12:30 PM
