Watershed Health

The Westside Watershed Resource Center inspires awareness and action on behalf of watershed health in Southwest and Northwest Portland.

We accomplish this by:

Providing residents, community groups and organizations with technical information and referrals for invasive plant removal, native plant landscaping, rainwater management and other practices that enhance the health of local watersheds. Schedule a FREE site visit with us to answer your questions or help you plan your next project!
Providing educational opportunities for youth and adults, such as field trips, in-class activities and community presentations.

Leveraging neighborhood partnerships in watershed health to seek grant funding and develop cost-effective watershed restoration projects.

WHAT IS A WATERSHED?

A watershed is an area of land that drains or "sheds" rain and snowmelt into a common body of water, such as a lake, creek, or river.

Look at this Portland watersheds map to see which watershed you live in.

Keep up to date on what we are doing and get connected with watershed stewardship opportunities and resources in Portland.
