Project Description:
Join Portland Parks & Recreation at the lovely Woodlawn Park to remove English ivy! We'll be focusing on areas of the park where the ivy has taken over, and we need your support in tending to this neighborhood gem. Meet us at the basketball courts for tools, gloves, and instructions.
All ages and skills welcome! Some areas we'll be working in are accessible from a paved pathway, other areas have stairs. Please wear sturdy close-toed shoes if available and layers to dress for the weather. Bring a water bottle and any food you may want/need. If you have any questions about the event accessibility, please email us. Thanks for helping us steward this space!
