Spring for Zenger
Saturday, April 1st, from 11AM-3PM
Zenger Farm, 11741 SE Foster Rd, Portland, OR 97266
Help us kick off our Open Farm Day season by joining us at Spring for Zenger! Zenger Farm will provide vegetable starts, herb starts, seeds, and other garden-related goodies! You can also bring your own plants and holders for a chance to swap with each other. Get advice from gardening pros, explore the farm, enjoy an herbal blend tea bar, and eat lunch cooked by our Community Chefs. Lunch will be served from 12-1PM.
*Please note that we have BIPOC family hours 11:00AM-12:30PM on this date. These hours are designed to ensure our Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) community members get first access to giveaways and resources. This is entirely self identified and multi-racial families/groups are welcome to attend within this time.

Registering ahead of time helps us prepare materials and food for the right amount of people. We understand that this can be a barrier, and welcome day-of registrations and drop-ins.
**Please order one ticket per group**
Sliding Scale: This event is made possible through our sliding scale or "pay as you can" model. Please pay what you are able to while registering. The suggested scale is $5-$100 per family or small group. Priority will be given to BIPOC and David Douglas School District families for slots at the lower end of the scale. If you are registering as an individual, feel free to slide down on the scale. If you are coming as a larger group of 5+, consider paying up on the scale. If you are an organized school, non-profit, or organizational group, please register here.
You can read our sliding-scale philosophy and explanation here.
