How can you be a part of restoring habitat in the greater Mt. Pisgah area with Friends of Buford Park?
- Grow native plants in our nursery!
- Clear invasive plant species!
- Plant native trees, shrubs and wildflowers!
- Maintain trails!
When? The Monday Morning Regulars are a productive and social group that meets every Monday morning from 9-noon, rain or shine, for a different task within the greater Mt. Pisgah area (see above for examples). You don't need to come every Monday to be a part of the group. We also have opportunities at our Native Plant Nursery on Tuesdays, Thursdays and 1st/3rd Saturdays, as well as special events throughout the year.
Where? Contact Sarah Mazze at volunteer @ bufordpark.org or 541 344-8350 for the meetup location (currently our native plant nursery at Buford Park). Volunteers can earn an annual parking pass while learning about and contributing to park conservation. Join us!
The Friends of Buford Park attribute much of our success in protecting and enhancing native habitat and compatible recreation in the greater Mt. Pisgah area to our amazing volunteers. We invite you to join the community that is stewarding the place! Individuals of all ages and varying degrees of expertise and experience, as well as employee and other groups care for this priceless resource.

Mission Statement
To protect and enhance native ecosystems and compatible recreation in the Mt. Pisgah area.
Description
The Friends believe that people and nature are intertwined. We’re a self-funded non-profit of nearly 1,000 members and volunteers investing our time, talent, and money so people and nature can thrive together in the greater Mt. Pisgah area.
We partner with Lane County Parks, Mount Pisgah Arboretum, The Nature Conservancy, Oregon State Parks, and other area landowners to enhance native habitat, improve trails, and involve volunteers in caring for the land.
Since our founding in 1989, the Friends of Buford Park & Mt. Pisgah have raised and invested millions of dollars in cash and volunteer contributions for habitat and trail improvements. We also explore Pisgah’s hidden treasures on guided tours and advocate for land protection regionally, such as the 1,300 acre Willamette Confluence Preserve next to Buford Park now owned by The Nature Conservancy.
