Sabin Community Orchard — Northeast Portland
Contact: info@portlandfruit.org
Work Party Schedule: 3rd Sunday every month, 2-4pm, Jan-Nov.
Sabin Community Orchard, was established in February of 2010 as a collaborative partnership between Portland Fruit Tree Project and Sabin Community Association. The orchard is located on a sloped public right-of-way at NE Mason Street between NE 18th and 19th Avenues. The property is owned by Portland Bureau of Transportation. Fourteen new fruit trees were planted in 2010 and 2011, to accompany two existing cherry trees and an apple tree.
The orchard is now home to 30 fruit trees and dozens of edible and beneficial understory plants, all which function as a multi-layered 'Food-Forest" of fruit trees, shrubs, vines, native plants for pollinators, and so much more.
