A place with a bit more history than I knew.
It's a most lovely arboretum. This place, located on SE 122nd Avenue just south of Foster Road, is a curated collection of native plants and native trees, arrayed on an upper level which has pollinator gardens and places for people to be and a section going down into the gully of Johnson Creek where historic structures and a very restful riparian section along the creek itself.
It is Portland's hidden garden.

Stretching behind that sign are the pollinators. I'll share a few of those pictures, as well as the history that I learned, in subsequent blog entries.
