• Sat Oct 05 at 10:00 AM - Fall Native Plant Sale

  Fall is the perfect time to plant native plants in your garden! Once established, native plants need little care and water. Select from a wide variety of trees, shrubs and flowering plants for every spot in your garden. Knowledgeable staff and volunteers are on hand to answer your questions. The Friends of the Tualatin Hills Nature Park sponsor this event, with proceeds going towards future park improvements and environmental education programs.

• Sat Nov 02 at 12:00 PM - Newt Day

  Follow nature’s cycle of life into fall as you learn how some cycles follow the seasons and some are the transition between generations. From rough-skinned newts and trees to garter snakes and wooly bear caterpillars, learn about the cycles that these forest inhabitants go through at indoor exhibits. Venture out into the park to find evidence of these plants and animals on a self-guided adventure. This is a family-friendly event that provides activities designed to inspire exploration of nature during the season when it is tempting to stay inside.
  Admission: $4 per person, children 2 years and under are free
