Join Urban Forestry at this Sunday Parkways event to help share info and promote Urban Forestry's free tree planting and care programs.
Celebrate community in beautiful East Portland while helping Urban Forestry grow our city's canopy! Volunteers will share information about our free programs to the public, like our Trees for Residential Streets program (which is currently open for registration) and help people submit interest forms for our popular Free Yard Tree Giveaway events that occur every fall. Share your love of trees with folks curious about getting free trees! We'll provide a short training on the Yard Tree Giveaway program and education materials you can use to get people excited about trees.
We will be meeting at McCoy Park.
Each shift lasts 2.5 hours, so you'll have plenty of time before/after your shift to enjoy the celebration.
"Portland Sunday Parkways Presented by Kaiser Permanente will return to North Portland with a brand new event route on August 2, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. , and will feature the charm of Downtown St Johns, McCoy Park, Columbia Park and Annex, and McKenna Park. This brand-new 6.7-mile route will celebrate the completion of recent walking and biking upgrades along N Willamette Boulevard, and several projects from the North Portland In Motion plan, allowing participants to experience these improvements car-free."
