Visitors of all ages come to the Hoyt Arboretum and we are excited to offer a new way for our younger visitors to learn about this Living Museum. We are developing a tour program focused on teaching environmental science and conservation to kids, but to make it a success, we need to train up some amazing tour guides - that’s where YOU come in. If you are interested in leading groups of kids through the arboretum, playing fun nature games, and helping a new generation learn about the wonders of nature, please contact Lorraine at lorraine.brooks@portlandoregon.gov
