Planting Trees around PDX

Friends of Trees in action.

Not only is it important to take care of the people within our communities, we should also be mindful of the nature around us and making sure it is being taken care of as well. Friends of Trees is a organization that was started in Portland by several neighborhood communities in 1989, and now has since grown to not only surrounding cities in Oregon, but now into Washington as well. The organization is run by volunteers from surround neighborhoods to plant, maintain and nurture our local trees, part of such the beauty that exists within our Pacific Northwest.

The website has a calendar that lists larger events, but you can also individually volunteer for local projects. Teams consists not only of planters, but drivers and resource managers. If getting your hands dirty isn't your thing, they also offer volunteer positions at their call center, where you can find the next spot to dig in!
