Tree planting in Hazelwood HydroPark
The Portland Water Bureau is planning the planting of about 47 new trees in the existing Hazelwood HydroPark, according to spokesperson Darcy Cronin.
The planting will include 25 large species, eight feet tall at the time of planting that include Douglas firs, ponderosa pines, big leaf maples and Oregon oaks, plus a dozen fruit trees, Cronin said. They will all be planted on Feb. 28 on the north side of the park.
At a community fair at the park in east Portland last summer, several people noted a lack of shade in this part of the park. Hazelwood HydroPark is at 1017 NE 117th. Ave.
