Volunteer for Portland’s annual citywide English ivy removal day at Hoyt Arboretum! With 189-acres and more than 6,000 trees along 12 miles of trails, volunteers are incredibly important to maintaining Hoyt Arboretum’s tree collection and trail system, and it’s a unique opportunity for volunteers to learn about and care for rare and unusual trees and plants from around the world.
Stewardship crews occur rain or shine; volunteers should come dressed for the weather including long pants and sturdy, closed-toe shoes.
Volunteers should plan to bring a water bottle, snacks, and a face covering.
No previous stewardship crew experience is required; training, tools, gloves, and volunteer parking passes are provided. Registration is required (crew size is limited).
Volunteers will meet at the worksite; exact meeting location details will be sent out prior to the crew date.
Masks are required for outdoor programs in Portland parks when physical distancing is not possible. If you are feeling any COVID-19 symptoms, please stay safe and stay home.
Volunteer Age Requirement
Volunteers must be at least 16-years-old. Volunteers between the ages of 16 and 17-years-old are welcome to volunteer without an adult, but an adult needs to sign their waiver form.
