The HOEC Mission: To celebrate and explore horticultural education, provide equitable community access to healthy food, and support systems that promote intergenerational community connection.
The HOEC Community Orchard, located on the Clackamas Community College Campus is the base for all of our workshops, volunteer programming, and CSA operations. This 1.6 acre educational orchard serves as an important community space dedicated to the preservation of heirloom fruit varieties, hands-on opportunities for learning, and demonstration of home orcharding practices.
Hoyt Arboretum Friends (HAF) is a membership-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to bring people and trees together. We create meaningful learning experiences in a unique global tree collection, in Portland, Oregon, that we nurture in partnership with Portland Parks & Recreation. Our living classroom is a public refuge for global plant biodiversity that is a welcoming and accessible place for all people to connect with nature.
