ARCHIVED: Plant Neighborhood Trees with Friends of Trees! (age 6+) Referral
Volunteer with Friends of Trees to plant street and yard trees in Eastside and North Portland neighborhoods, Beaverton and Vancouver! No experience is necessary. We’re aiming to plant just over 4,000 street and yard trees in our award-winning Neighborhood Trees program this season -- help us make those goals a reality!
We'll provide gloves, tools, skilled guidance - as well as free coffee and breakfast treats. All we ask is that you dress appropriately for the weather and wear sturdy shoes or boots. This is a great project for families! Kids from age 6 and older are welcome to join in the fun if accompanied by an adult. Please join us to make a difference in this community and meet other great Portlanders while you're at it! If you're with a group, RSVPs for everyone are not required (although we appreciate knowing when your group has 5 or more members).
