SUMMARY:No Ivy Day
DESCRIPTION:Johnson Creek Watershed Council and Portland Parks and Recreation are teaming up for the city-wide No Ivy Day this year! Volunteers will spend the morning at Knapp Falls removing English ivy from the riparian zones and off trees to make room for native species to thrive.   \nThis 6-acre natural area is in the Lents neighborhood and is a tributary of the Johnson Creek watershed. It is part of the broader network of natural areas in outer Southeast Portland that protect water quality\, provide wildlife corridors\, and buffer residential neighborhoods from the seasonal flooding that historically affected the Johnson Creek floodplain. It is an obscure\, quiet ecological area that has a hidden waterfall called Knapp Falls; a seasonal cascade that forms during the fall and then disappears during the summer when the creek goes dry. \nCLICK HERE TO RSVP\nWhat: Join us and Portland Parks and Recreation to remove English ivy \nWhen: October 24\, 2026\, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM \nWhere: Knapp Falls\, 10368 SE Knapp Street Portland\, OR  97266 .  \nHow to prepare: This event will happen rain or shine\, so dress for weather: rain coat\, warm layers\, sun hat\, and sunscreen as necessary.

We can also provide bus fare to and from the event. Please contact amandeep@jcwc.org to arrange bus fare. \nHealth and Safety: We will follow current Oregon Health Authority guidelines.
