Heave-Ho to the Invasives at Southwood Park!
ORGANIZATION: Lake Oswego Parks Stewardship
Please visit the new page to apply.
- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Grab a shovel or clippers and give the invasives a one way ticket out of the natural areas of Southwood Park. This tucked away park is a hidden treasure that hosts a babbling stream that was recently unburied from mounds of invasive blackberry vines by Stewardship volunteers. Breathe in the fresh air, listen to the birds sing and notice how the massive fir trees have been cleared of the ivy that threatened to smother them.
Parking: 6200 Pamela St., Portland
