Hillsboro Neighborhood Planting

About the event

Let’s plant trees together in Hillsboro! Interested in receiving a tree? Click HERE to purchase a tree for your household. Dozens of large (6-10′ tall) trees will be ready for planting in their new homes, and your help is what makes this community planting possible!

Please arrive by 8:45am to sign-in and be assigned a planting crew. The planting starts at 9:00am. We provide gloves, tools, and guidance, as well as light breakfast snacks and coffee/tea/hot chocolate. We ask that all volunteers dress for the weather, wear sturdy shoes/boots you don’t mind getting dirty, and be ready to have fun!

How do I register? Fill out this quick registration form to save your place. Groups, families, and individuals welcome! If your group is more than 5 people, please know you will be assigned to different planting crews.

Have a pickup truck? We need your help getting these young trees to their planting sites a few blocks away from the central staging site. Please sign up if you’re able to help in this key role.

Under age 18? We request that youth 15 and under volunteer with a parent/guardian.  Youth 16 and older can volunteer on their own and will need to hand us a youth waiver form signed by their parent/guardian.

Questions?  Please check out our Volunteer FAQ webpage.  Our team is also happy to assist!  You can reach Cece and Jenny at volunteer@friendsoftrees.org, 503-595-0213. We look forward to planting together soon!
