Just as April showers bring May flowers, spring milkweed planting can attract summer monarchs! These butterflies depend on milkweed for each stage of life, but the loss of habitat and their food supply have led to this species' decline in the Pacific Northwest. Please help us fill the "need for milkweed" by joining Greenbelt for an afternoon at Bald Hill Farm. We'll be planting milkweed grown from seeds planted by volunteers at Greenbelt's native nursery. Meet and mingle with other volunteers, learn about monarchs, and help bring more of these butterflies to the region! Space is limited to 10 people. For more info or questions, contact Read More

Benjamin Franklin called the turkey a "Bird of Courage" and wanted it, not the bald eagle, to be our national bird and emblem.  But did you know that turkeys are an introduced species in Oregon?  Greenbelt is monitoring turkeys at Bald Hill Farm to see if their numbers may impact native and rare plant species. And we need your help to do it! Join us for a morning of counting turkeys, contributing to local citizen science, and exploring parts of this special conservation area not publically accessible. Experience surveying birds or wildlife is beneficial but not required. Note: This opportunity is subject to be rescheduled Read More
