Woods Natural Area Stewardship Event

Description

Project details
Join Portland Parks & Recreation and Friends of Woods Park to Steward Woods Memorial Natural Area. Removing invasively growing species and planting diversity of native plants encourages regeneration of native plants, prevents erosion and prevents water runoff. This is a great way to get outside and connect with nature! 

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 and “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.

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.
