SUMMARY:Paddle & Pull with Willamette Riverkeeper
DESCRIPTION:Join Willamette Riverkeeper\, Yamhill Soil & Water Conservation District\, and Oregon Parks & Recreation Department for the third “Paddle & Pull” event of the summer. Come spend the day with us to paddle a beautiful Willamette River side channel from Ediger Landing to Grand Island Greenway and help hand-pull aquatic invasive species Ludwigia (water-primrose)\, Myriophyllum aquaticum (parrotfeather)\, and more. These aquatic weeds continue to degrade fish & wildlife habitat in our rivers and have negative impacts on our native vegetation\, water quality and the overall watershed health. This is an on-water event\, so experience on moving water is recommended. We have ten tandem canoes (20 seats) for volunteers. If you’d like to borrow one for the day you MUST SELECT this option in the “Add On” section of registration. Reserve a seat\, and make a new friend! \nThere are kayaks available for up to 20 participants\, so make sure you sign up today to reserve your spot! \nRegister Online HereLearn more about Water PrimroseSee Project HighlightsLearn more about Garden Yellow Loosestrife

SUMMARY:Perseid Party
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to a rare after-dark event at Miller Woods! Normally\, Miller Woods is closed after sunset… But this is a special opportunity to see Miller Woods at night\, and hopefully see some meteors as well! \nThe Perseid Meteor Shower is an annual meteor shower that comes around each August. The year\, the peak night is August 12th. We will still have a 3/4 moon\, but hopefully we will be able to spot a few meteors before the moonrise! \nThere is no cost for this event\, but we do appreciate donations to Miller Woods to keep the space up and running. The suggested donation “entry fee” is $5. It’s thanks to contributions from park visitors that we’re able to maintain Miller Woods as a public space! \nThis event will also include brief educational presentations by volunteers from Oregon Dark Sky and the Carlton Observatory. \nMake a Donation to Miller WoodsRegister Online Here

SUMMARY:Cover Crop Field Tour
DESCRIPTION:We will hear from OSU researchers about preliminary results of new research on the impacts of cover crops on soil and orchard health. Speakers include: farmers Jeff Newton and Zach Christensen\, Dragomira Zheleva\, whose research focuses on water availability and water retention in the soil both with and without cover crops; Chris Lessey\, whose research is related to moderating soil temperature with cover crops; Matt Tippet-Vannini\, whose research investigates the relationship between cover crops and water infiltration. OSU Professor Shannon Cappellazzi will touch on cover crop effects on soil health and Natalie Edward with NRCS will demonstrate differences in management practices on water infiltration and erosion with a rain simulation system. \nAnyone with an interest in cover crops should attend! While we will be in a hazelnut orchard\, and learning about research conducted primarily in hazelnuts\, cover crops can be used in a wide variety of agricultural and even home garden contexts. We hope to see you there! \nDetailed directions and parking instructions will be provided to attendees one week prior to the event. \nThis is a free event organized by Polk SWCD\, Yamhill SWCD\, Oregon State University\, and NRCS. Coffee and snacks will be provided. Registration is required. \nRegister Online Here
