Description:

In 1982 Mike Houck was told by officials “there is no place for nature in the city”. Today, Metro, the regional government, owns 17,000 acres and local park providers own several thousand additional acres of parks and natural area. Mike will describe the evolution of The Intertwine, a Portland-Vancouver regional system of parks, trails, and natural areas. Together government and nonprofit organizations have worked for thirty years to protect biodiversity and watershed health across the urban and rural landscapes all the while ensuring the region’s residents have access to nature where they live, work and play.
