Thanks to OHSU who partnered with us to remove invasive plants during our No Ivy Day 2024 Event
Last Monday, we hosted a full moon viewing from the Walpole Garden labyrinth. Tea lights were placed at the intersections of the stones forming the guided walkways.Here’s looking to the southeast before sunset.
We’re happy to report that Labyrinth Network Northwest (LNN) posted an article featuring the now completed Walpole Garden labyrinth.
If you haven’t checked it out, now’s the time. We have a feeling many folks will be traveling to the site to experience the labyrinth and the spectacular views it offers.
Many THANKS to the Friends of Terwilliger who showed up to improve this labyrinth at the Walpole Garden area of Historic Terwilliger Parkway.
The Frederick Andrews Walpole Garden is a public garden created in the strip of land between SW Terwilliger Boulevard and SW Hamilton Terrace with spectacular, unobstructed views of the Willamette Valley and Mount Hood. The garden is named after Frederick Andrews Walpole, a major US botanical illustrator hired by the US government who settled in Portland and built his home at Eagle Point in 1894.
The project has been developed by the Friends of Terwilliger and Portland Parks & Recreation over the past six years: reflecting our volunteer capacity, funds raised, and exploring what works in the area.
2023 is now in the rear-view mirror and it’s time to congratulate ourselves for our restoration accomplishments.
