Tryon Life Community Farm's Education Team tends many different educational opportunities. We plan and lead educational field trips for people of all ages, create educational signs for the land, tend an education-focused garden plot, and host the Becoming People of Place book club. We've also started educating ourselves about local handcrafts and natural dyes. We have a lot of fun!
If this sounds interesting, please join us. Our next meeting is Tuesday, June 24, 7 pm. Please contact Brenna at brenna@tryonfarm.org for more information about joining the team.

Tryon Life Community Farm grows community learning in Portland while preserving common green space, restoring native ecosystems, and demonstrating sustainable urban density living.

On seven acres of land, surrounded by 350 acres of native ecosystem in SW Portland, we are an intentional community of 20 residents, with the support of dozens of nonresident participants, community organizations, Tryon Creek State Park, and city officials. We maintain TLC Farm as a public resource. We have laid the foundation for an impressive educational program with a school-based curriculum and community workshops as well as community-initiated demonstration land projects.
