We would love to see you out on the trails with us in 2020 as these work parties are designed to meet a wide range of worker capabilities. We welcome all and all abilities. So give some thought to joining us or just stop by and say hi.

As always our work is guided by the Portland Parks Lands Stewardship folks. and Parks will bring all the tools, gloves, and materials we need, and also, coffee, snacks, water, and usually some fruit. On these work parties it is not necessary to stay for the whole event and you can work at whatever level your skill and energy allows. It is just great to meet the neighbors and get a little trail work in.

When you join us please wear work clothing, closed toe shoes and weather appropriate layers.  It is the NW who knows what weather we will get but layers are always a good idea.
