Help restore Terwilliger Parkway

Join us for our monthly work party to help rid the parkway of unwanted and invasive plants. We meet the 2nd Saturday of every month 9:00 AM- 12:00 noon at the corner of SW Hamilton St. on Terwilliger Parkway. Our next work party is Saturday, June 8th, 2013. We provide the tools, snacks, and instruction to get the job done. You provide the muscles and desire to help one of Portland’s favorite parks! Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes or boots. [Map] [Contact]

South Gateway Sign project

Preliminary planning and fundraising has begun for a matching Gateway Sign to be located at SW 7th Ave. and Terwilliger Parkway. FOT dedicated the North Gateway Sign in Duniway Park in July 2012 (see photo above). Please contact FOT to get involved in supporting this exciting new project. [Contact]

About FOT

Friends of Terwilliger (FOT) started informally about 30 years ago to oppose a proposed apartment complex adjacent to the Parkway. In time it became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with a mission to protect the natural character and scenic beauty of the Terwilliger Parkway corridor. [Learn more]
