Volunteer to help at a Yard Tree Giveaway event! At this fun and fast-paced event we will be giving away about 300 trees per event to Portlanders! Folks have pre-registered for trees. The event is set up as a drive-thru format where the recipient stays in their car until it is time to load up the trees.
What to expect? We will work rain or shine, so be sure to dress for the weather and wear closed-toe shoes. Snacks and water will be provided to volunteers. Please bring a reusable water bottle and lunch if you will need it.
High impact work includes (12 avilable slots): loading/unloading mulch, trees and tools as well as Finding Root-flares: High impact work requires digging in soil, bending, crouching and lifting. Sharp tools, like soil knives and pruners, will be used.
Low impact work (2 available slots): Handing out information booklets, Directing traffic, Taking Photos, distributing stickers and promotion/ Yard signs.
For the comfort and safety of all participants, please leave your pets at home. Before attending any event: if you are not feeling well, have a temperature above 100.4ᵒ or receive a recommendation to self-isolate – please stay home.
