Plant Trees on October 4th with SOLV

Plant Trees and help restore watersheds at SOLV’s Team Up For Watershed Health sites on Saturday October 4th. We have tree plantings taking place at Rinearson Creek in Gladstone, Carter Creek in Lake Oswego, and Tryon Creek in SW Portland. All of our plantings are along sensitive, high priority ecological areas along stream banks in the Portland area that were recently overwhelmed by invasive plants. By planting native trees and shrubs in these areas volunteers will be creating habitat for future generations of birds, small mammals, and fish. Plantings start at 9 am and end by 12 pm.

For more information and to register visit the Team up For Watershed Health Website, http://www.solv.org/programs/teamup_watershed_health.asp. Event information is found at the very bottom of the page. You can also contact Brett Lyon at brett@solv.org or 503-844-9571 x 332. Put on your boots, grab a shovel, and come dig in! We hope to see you out in your watershed!
