The 16-acre garden, located in outer Southeast Portland, is owned by Portland Parks & Recreation. With capital project funds from both private and public sources, the Garden is just completing substantial capital improvements including a pollinator and habitat garden and an aerial tree walk.
David Porter spent the last decade as its Executive Director, retiring in early 2021. He will take us on a behind the scenes tour of this beautiful garden as well as share the fascinating history of its founders, Lilla and John Leach.
