Would you like to volunteer at the Backyard Habitat Certification Program’s native plant sale? This sale happens twice a year—once in the spring, coordinated by the Columbia Land Trust, and once in the fall, coordinated by Audubon Society of Portland. For this upcoming spring sale, we are excited to collaborate with Echo Valley Natives for the fifth year to offer discounted native plants to Backyard Habitat Certification Program participants. We are seeking volunteers who would like to support onsite parking and plant loading. You’ll go home feeling great that you helped distribute thousands of native plants to nearby backyards.
Dates: Friday, April 12 and Saturday, April 13
Times: 2 shifts available – 9:30 am to 1:00 pm and 12:30 pm to 4:00 pm
Location: Echo Valley Natives, 18883 S. Ferguson Road, Oregon City, OR 97045
Directions and Parking: Google Maps does not take you to the correct location, but it gets you close. When Google Maps says you’ve reached your destination keep going until you reach the bottom of the hill and see signs for the plant sale. Parking will be further down the road around the bend.
