The Heartland team recently participated in a volunteer day at Solid Ground, where we spent the day working in the garden at Marra Farms. Located in the Duwamish River Valley, Marra Farm comprises 8.7 acres of preserved farmland in Seattle’s South Park neighborhood. Solid Ground’s CFE program, one of many community partners who steward the land, operates a Giving Garden that does education work while growing food for the community. We had a great day of weeding, harvesting, and trellis building. Thank you to the team at Marra Farms who worked with us!

Heartland is pleased to have had the opportunity to work alongside our colleagues at KPFF Consulting Engineers and Hillis Clark Martin & Peterson P.S. to inform City of Seattle's Office of Housing in strategic considerations regarding the redevelopment of the 34-acre Fort Lawton property.

We're excited about the progress the Seattle Indian Health Board ("SIHB") is making towards opening their new inpatient substance use disorder treatment center on Vashon Island. SIHB, a nationally recognized organization that provides healthcare services for urban Native Americans, purchased the property for $11 million on March 31, 2023.   The Health Board plans to transform the VCC site into a 92-bed inpatient treatment center for substance abuse disorders, a critical step towards re-opening and expanding its Thunderbird Treatment Center, which had closed in 2019. The facility's program will combine traditional Indian medicine and cutting-edge therapeutic programs, offering a powerful alternative to conventional treatment models.   We're proud to have played a role in this important transaction and to help the SIHB achieve its goal of providing exceptional healthcare services to its relatives and the broader community.
