Work Party

The Oswego Lake Watershed Council invites you to join us as we restore Boutwell Creek, an important tributary to Oswego Lake. This creek lies mostly on private property and has become neglected and overgrown with invasive species. We need your help to improve this important creekside property! The work will focus on removing invasive English ivy from the native vegetation and streambanks. It will be a great way to give back to the environment, meet others in the community, and to experience a beautiful creek not often seen by the public! Please wear closed-toe shoes, long pants, and weather-appropriate clothing. OLWC will provide tools, gloves, and snacks. We work rain or shine so come prepared for the weather. Registration will open in September: https://www.portlandoregon.gov/parks/article/587625
