Non-native, invasive weeds like Himalayan Blackberry and English Ivy are taking over stream banks in neighborhoods all over Gresham! Weed infestations are causing bank erosion and water pollution, destroying wildlife habitat and decreasing property values in our community.
Get dirty, make new friends and help restore Gresham streams at Saturday morning community events!
Are you feeling cooped up inside because of the rain and falling temperatures?
Don't let the weather get you down. Bundle up and join in for one of our upcoming winter volunteer projects!
