Join SOLV and roughly 12,000 volunteers across Oregon to fight back against invasive species. On Saturday, May 17th from 9 am to 1 pm SOLV is hosting Down By The Riverside, an event with over 300 projects throughout Oregon and Clark County, WA. At this fun volunteer event community members learn about their personal impact on local watersheds, important work is accomplished, and people build stronger bonds with one another. This year, SOLV is partnering with The Nature Conservancy, Oregon Public Broadcasting, The Oregon Invasive Species Council, and other organizations to focus on the problem of invasive species. Invasive plants cost Oregon over $100 million each year due to habitat and crop loss and contribute to the decline of many threatened and endangered native species.
