Forest Glen Park is located in Forest Grove. The park follows a small tributary stream of Gales Creek, and important stream for salmon habitat in the Tualatin River watershed. Volunteers will be planting both native trees and shrubs along the stream corridor.
A large variety of native trees, shrubs, ground covers and perennials will be available at the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District's 10th Annual Fall Native Plant Sale.
The event takes place Saturday, Oct. 3, from 10 am to 2 pm at the Tualatin Hills Nature Center, 15655 SW Millikan Way, Beaverton. Admission is free.
Fall is an excellent time to establish native plants in local gardens. Established native plants require less care and water and provide greater wildlife benefits than many ornamental plants.
"Planting now gives your plants a head start on next spring's growing season," said Karen Munday, program coordinator at the Nature Center.
Plant experts, THPRD park rangers, and other knowledgeable staff and volunteers will be on hand to help gardeners make the right choice for their landscape.
The event is sponsored by Friends of the Tualatin Hills Nature Park with proceeds going to park improvements and environmental education. For more information, call the Nature Center at 503-629-6350.
