6 adults and 1 cute kid put in lots of hours on April 25th...
1:30-6pm!
We sanded and got a first coat of stain on the cedar frame of our greenhouse. Lots of work, but it was rewarding to work together for common good!
'Our Happy Block' is a grassroots SE Portland Neighborhood Coalition formed to improve livability through volunteer projects and sustainable community design. We live and work in the vicinity of SE 80th-82nd Avenue and SE Woodstock Blvd/SE Martins Street in Portland, Oregon....where the heart-bomb mural is located.

What: Improve Your Soil - a free community workshop!
Come join the OSU Extension metro Master Gardener™ program presenters and learn how you can “Improve Your Soil” to get your garden ready for planting this spring! This class will highlight the fact that healthy soil is the foundation of a productive and resilient garden. While many gardeners focus on choosing plants, planting, and harvesting, true garden success depends on understanding and improving the soil that provides plants with essential water, nutrients, and air. Participants will learn why soil care is key to supporting strong root systems and vigorous growth, along with practical ways to build and maintain soil that allows their gardens to thrive.
