Stewardship Events with Portland Parks & Recreation
These events are year round and ongoing since October 2023. Thank you to everyone who joined Portland Parks & Recreation and MNA in Spring Garden Park during the 2024 volunteer season. We had a busy year, and thanks to your support, we hosted over 20 volunteer events with approximately 150 volunteers! This resulted in around 300 hours of volunteer work in the park, including unwanted plant removal, tree relocation, and soft surface trail maintenance. Your dedication to keeping the park clean and safe is greatly appreciated.

Spring Garden Park in Oregon Humanities Publication
Though not named in the article, Spring Garden Park is the daylighting of Tryon Creek mentioned by Josephine Woolington in this piece "The Flow Below: Learning to see the hidden springs and streams that shape Portland" from the most recent Oregon Humanities Magazine. She writes, "In several cities across the country, communities have worked to “daylight” buried streams, removing pipes and allowing water to flow above ground again .... In Southwest Portland, parts of Tryon Creek and Restoration Creek have been daylighted."
