THE
FACILITY

of downtown Portland. Workshops and demonstrations will be held
outdoors under a covered space. Exhibits and entertainment
will be held in the NW section of Peninsula Park. Since Green
Sprouts is scheduled when the weather is typically mild and dry,
families can also enjoy of all the other attractions that Peninsula
Park has to offer such as play grounds and a 2 acre, well-maintained
rose garden. Ample FREE street parking is available, however,
we encourage all to take alternative transportation or the MAX
train, which has a stop just blocks away from the park..
