Nature Patches

Portland's Leading Horticulture Professionals

Portland's Nature Patch program brings natural garden spaces to neighborhood parks for people and wildlife. 

This series of over twenty large naturescapes support native pollinators and provide unique opportunities to connect with nature close to home.

Please join us in caring for these public gardens to enhance their beauty and foster thriving urban habitat.
