This year Forest Park Conservancy will be celebrating by hosting volunteer restoration events in Forest Park and Marquam Nature Park! We'll be removing invasive plants to make space for native species to thrive and support future revegetation efforts. This important work helps improve the health and resilience of the forest ecosystem for years to come. When: Saturday, September 26th, 9am to 12pm. Where: Marquam Nature Park. Parking is limited. Carpooling is encouraged! A portable restroom will be available at this site. What: Removing and cutting up invasive species.

Long pants, long socks, and sturdy, closed-toe tennis shoes or hiking boots with good traction are required for your safety. Long-sleeved shirts and weather appropriate layers for sun/wind/rain are also recommended. Make sure to bring a water bottle - many folks find it beneficial to bring a small backpack as well.
