Planting day volunteers at work
Join us as a planting volunteer at a Friends of Trees planting!

Friends of Trees is working in partnership with the Tualatin River Watershed Council and Clean Water Services to help restore the Bonita natural area to a diverse and healthy riparian forest ecosystem. The site was recently cleared of a nearly impassable thicket of English hawthorn and Himalayan blackberry, and is on its way to being restored as a mixed hardwood riparian forest. This event will focus on adding additional native trees and shrubs to enhance the plant community for wildlife and water quality.


Please arrive around 8:45am to be registered and assigned to a crew. The planting will start promptly at 9:00am. We provide breakfast snacks and hot chocolate/coffee, as well as gloves, tools and guidance. Please come dressed for the weather and wearing sturdy, closed-toe shoes and get ready to have fun!


RSVPs are not required. Please contact Jenny or Pablo at (503) 595-0213 if you have any questions or need more information. We look forward to seeing you out there!
