Portland Parks & Recreation Urban Forestry

Heritage Trees are trees that have been formally recognized by City Council for their unique size, age, historical or horticultural significance. There are over 300 Heritage Trees throughout Portland, ranging from 15' tall to 248' tall and over 120 unique tree species.

SE Portland has the most Heritage Trees with 105, while east of SE 82ndAve. and I-205 only has 5! Anyone can nominate a Heritage Tree, and at this workshop, we will learn more about what makes these trees so special, how you can nominate a tree, and where to find which ones live in your neighborhood!

Please pre-register, an invitation to join the webinar will be sent to registered attendees on 7/20/20 with the link to join the webinar.
The workshop will begin promptly at 10:00 am, please note that ufvolunteers@portlandoregon.gov email will not be checked during the scheduled program time.

Portland Parks & Recreation Urban Forestry's mission is to manage and ensure Portland's urban forest infrastructure for current and future generations. Portland’s urban forest consists of 236,000 street trees, 1.2 million park trees, and innumerable private property trees. Urban Forestry is involved in managing or regulating all of these trees to differing degrees. Urban Forestry staff issue permits for planting, pruning, and removal of all public and some private trees and are on call 24/7 to respond to tree emergencies.
