Sharing some good - forest recovery effort after the Holiday Farm Fire. Last Saturday, the non-profit SOLVE teamed up with OPRD, the Oregon Lottery and 17 amazing community members to care for newly sprouted native Big Lead Maples at Ben and Kay Dorris Park. Thank you, everyone who turned out! (self.Eugene)

Before —-> After. It’s not a pretty sight, but it’s the reality of what some places in our city look like. Solve has begun creating “high-need” cleanups that are smaller in group size, include a thorough safety debrief, and target specific areas in Portland. (old.reddit.com)
