Mark your calendars and dust off those gardening gloves—we are collaborating with Sparrowhawk Native Plants to provide delicious and sustainable plant selections for our upcoming sale at Parkrose Community Orchard from April 25–26. The event will be from 9 am - 4 pm each day!
This collaboration offers an array of native and fruit-bearing plants, perfect for anyone looking to cultivate an edible landscape while supporting a community-driven cause. Pick up a can or two of our house-made jam or jelly while browsing plants and get a mason bee house to introduce native bees into the wonderful space you are cultivating at home!
We are dedicated to supporting you all grow and harvest fruit in your neighborhood while sharing with your neighbors. We work to decrease food insecurity and food waste by providing access to free fresh produce from homeowners in the area with excess fruit from their trees. Our programs also seek to foster a sense of community ownership, connection with your neighbors and equity in our communities. With the Sparrowhawk Native Sale, you can get your hands on some delicious fruit varieties and resilient native species while helping us continue to dedicate ourselves to being one of the tools folks can use to build bonds of resiliency. It’s the perfect mix of ecological restoration, community building and delicious sustainability.
Fruit trees can feed so many people!
