Note: This event is intended for Guild members only. If you are not a Guild member, but would like to become one, click here.

Description: We will work in the willow plot from 9 am to 10:30 am and harvest from 10:30 to noon. Meet at the Our Table plot to weed the perimeter, maintain the landscape fabric, and other willow gardening chores.

The CBBG willow plot is at Our Table Cooperative Farm, 13390 SW Morgan Road, Sherwood, OR. Enter the driveway off Morgan Road. At the gate in front of the store, go right. You will pass several hoop houses, a compost pile, and blueberry field all on your left. Then turn into a small parking area next to the fenced willow plot.

Bring tools for weeding, kneeling pad, pruners, knife for cutting bark, water, snack (if desired).

If you do not want bark, you may earn Willow Bucks. Each volunteer hour earns a $5 Willow Bucks credit. This can be used toward buying dried willow or toward a materials fee where Our Table willow is used in a Guild-sponsored class.

If you collect bark, you do not earn Willow Bucks.

No sign up or RSVP is needed, just show up. See you there!
