Terwilliger Parkway Stewardship Event

Description

Project details
Join Portland Parks & Recreation and Friends of Terwilliger to enhance habitat in the Terwilliger Parkway wildlands. Together we will remove noxious weeds, including English ivy, clematis and Himalayan/Armenian blackberry. We will also plant native plants at select winter events. By removing invasively growing, non-native plant species and planting a diversity of native plants, we support wildlife habitat and prevent erosion and water runoff. 

Please bring your own water bottle, wear closed toe shoes, and dress for the weather. Instructions, tools, and gloves will be provided. For the safety of staff and other volunteers, please stay home if you are feeling sick

Please register ahead of time by selecting “respond” for an individual or “respond for a team” to register more than one person. If you are not comfortable creating a login to register for any reason, please reach out to monica.walker@portlandoregon.gov and we can help you get registered.

Questions? For more information contact Monica Walker at Monica.Walker@portlandoregon.gov or call/text 503-823-8367

Meeting location: The meeting location will differ for each scheduled date. An exact meeting location will be emailed to registered volunteers the day before the event. 

Children are welcome if accompanied by an attentive adult.

Accessibility:  This event will require bending over and walking on uneven surfaces. A portable restroom will be available at this site. 

Thank you for helping to keep Portland parks healthy and beautiful! Below are a few tips to get you ready for your stewardship event.
