Agency: Portland Parks and Recreation - Natural Resources (West)

Description:

Do you think nature is only found outside of the city? Think again! Enjoy your Saturday morning working outside to restore our urban forest and meeting others in our community. Join Friends of Terwilliger and the West Willamette Restoration Partnership to restore our urban forest in southwest Portland. Terwilliger Blvd has been a main thoroughfare for almost 100 years! Many hikers, runners, and bicyclists utilize this verdant boulevard. Help keep this a high-quality natural area for people, native plants, and wildlife! Meet at the corner of SW Terwilliger and SW Hamilton St near the public restrooms. Please contact us before coming and for more info: (503) 699-9825. We will have tools, gloves, water and snacks. Just bring your rain boots and a friend and come ready to work! Some work may be on uneven ground. *
