Welcome!
Seattle Urban Nature (SUN) is a local non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the quality of life in the Puget Sound region by engaging communities to improve urban forests.
Our mission is to create tools to empower stewards for healthy urban ecosystems. For more information on our Vision, Goals and Values, click here.
SUN was founded in 1998 to survey and map the vegetation and wildlife habitat on Seattle’s public land. These maps and data are available for use and study. As an extension of this work, SUN provides ecological and GIS services to non-profit, public sector, and private organizations in the Puget Sound Region.
