    Description

    Lasagna Gardening Work Party & Skill Share

    Join us for our first land-tending work party of 2026. We will tour TLC Farm and discuss land-tending priorities for the year, then have a hands skill share on lasagna gardening, a no-dig, no-till, regenerative technique. We will practice by prepping our new garden plot. Light snacks served afterwards.

    Location

    On-site

    Tryon Life Community Farm

    11640 SW Boones Ferry Rd., Portland, Oregon, US
    Directions

    The farm's driveway is at the south end of the Tryon Life State Natural Area parking lot on SW Boones Ferry Rd., roughly opposite Coronado St. Please drive down the driveway and park in the park spaces to your left. If you reach the houses, you've gone too far and can turn around at the end of the drive. We will meet at the Outdoor Kitchen, just downhill from the parking area.
