The Conservancy

Forest Park Conservancy's mission is focused on protecting Forest Park and Marquam Nature Park's ecological health while encouraging responsible recreation and access. We believe these values are not only consistent, they are interdependent: the more people visit these parks and experience just how special a place they are, the more the public will support and value it. And the more people value these unique urban forests, the brighter their future will be. That's why our stewardship staff, seasonal technicians, and 2,000+ volunteers spend many hours in the field every year.
