Calling all tree planters! (Gresham, OR)

Save to Favorites

Help needed to plant trees at this community workparty in West Gresham! Dozens of large (6-10' tall) trees will be ready for planting in their new homes, and your help is what makes this community planting possible!

Please arrive by 8:45am to sign-in and be assigned a planting crew. The planting starts at 9:00am. We provide gloves, tools, and planting guidance, as well as breakfast snacks and coffee/tea/hot chocolate -- all you need to do is show up dressed for the weather wearing sturdy shoes or boots, and be ready to have fun!

How do I register? Go to the Friends of Trees calendar (friendsoftrees.org/event-calendar/), select this event, and fill out the short registration form to save your place. Groups and individuals welcome! If your group is more than 5 people, please know you will be assigned to different planting crews.

Under age 18? We request that youth 15 and under volunteer with a parent/guardian. Youth 16 and older can volunteer on their own and will need to hand us a youth waiver form (friendsoftrees.org/youthwaiver) signed by their parent/guardian.

What about Covid-19? We require that all people at our events cancel if you are feeling unwell or have been exposed to someone who tested positive for Covid-19 within 3 days of the event. We recommend everyone is fully-vaccinated, bring and wear a face mask when working in close quarters, and respect 6’ of physical distance. Please see our webpage for more details: friendsoftrees.org/volunteer-faq/

We hope to plant trees with you soon! (don't forget to register via our calendar: https://friendsoftrees.org/event-calendar/)
