If you're looking to connect with the outdoors and community this spring, Earth Month is the perfect opportunity!
Oregonians can make tangible impacts this year through events like the iNaturalist City Nature Challenge, where participants contribute to global biodiversity research by simply documenting wildlife in their communities. Park cleanups across the state offer another way to give back, ensuring that Oregon’s natural spaces remain healthy and accessible for all. Here's a list of events from the Oregon Environmental Council and OSU where you can take part in Earth Month locally, and support the wildlife, land, water, and air that make our state so special.
