Molalla Fifth Graders Explore Forest Science with Port Blakely
This past spring, Port Blakely welcomed fifth-grade classes from Molalla Elementary School to our forest near Molalla as part of our Environmental Education Program. This experience was highlighted in the Molalla River School District Newsletter (June 2025).
For the past five years, Port Blakely has hosted students from the Molalla River School District. These forest field trips provide hands-on lessons in forest ecology, the importance of trees, and the diverse wildlife that thrives in our working forests.
These immersive learning opportunities play a vital role in Port Blakely’s mission to inspire future generations to care for the land. Since the program began, we have hosted over 100,000 visitors, helping them learn about forests and environmental stewardship.
