Join us talk about trees and promote our Yard Tree Giveaway program. Share your love of trees with folks that may be interested in getting up to 2 free trees! Celebrate the eclectic Sunnyside neighborhood while helping Urban Forestry grow our city's canopy! Volunteers will help pre-register people for our popular Free Yard Tree Giveaway that occurs in the fall. We'll have games, candy, and merchandise you can use to get people excited about trees. You will receive a talking points checklist and a short introduction/training talk explaining the Yard Tree Giveaway program. And, of course, staff will always be there to help in any way!
Portland Parks & Recreation Urban Forestry's mission is to manage and ensure Portland's urban forest infrastructure for current and future generations. Portland’s urban forest consists of 220,000 street trees, 1.2 million park trees, and nearly 3 million private property trees.
Urban Forestry is involved in managing or regulating all of these trees to differing degrees. Urban Forestry staff issue permits for planting, pruning, and removal of all public and some private trees and are on call 24/7 to respond to tree emergencies.
