We’ll begin to free the soil to make way for a beautiful Oregon white oak prairie. Then we’re throwing a party!

The day will include depaving, opportunities to learn about this unique landscape and the North Portland Greenway, music, food, festivities, art and fun activities for all ages. Depaving from 10 am until noon. The party goes until 3 pm Volunteers of all ages are welcome. Depave will provide volunteers with tools and safety gear. Volunteers wishing to depave MUST wear closed-toed shoe - No exceptions!!! Don’t want to depave? No problem! There will be lots to enjoy for everyone. Here are directions to the site. PARKING can be found outside the gate in the surrounding neighborhood. There is limited parking adjacent the site - reserved as accessible parking.
