April 22 @ 11:00 am - 10:00 pm
Join Portland Fruit Tree Project to celebrate the abundance of our urban canopy this Earth Day, April 22nd, 2023, in partnership with the Earth Day Oregon campaign!
This casual family-fun day will be held at beautiful Rossi Farms in the Parkrose neighborhood. This is a day-long event with plant sales, music, games, BOUNCE HOUSES, food and drink, and more; we invite you to come together with us to celebrate Earth Day and cultivate abundance into the 2023 harvest season and beyond!

This year we are rebranding and broadening our efforts to create more shade equity through tree planting and building our workforce development projects in an effort to combat the effects of climate change in our city.
