SUMMARY:Arborists in the Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, September 6\, more than 100 professional arborists from across the Portland region will volunteer their expertise to care for Hoyt Arboretum’s global tree collection. Now in its 38th year\, the Arborists in the Arboretum event has become a beloved tradition in the city’s tree care community — and an essential part of keeping the more than 6\,000 trees at Hoyt Arboretum healthy and thriving. Arborists in the Arboretum begins at 8:00 AM and continues until 12:00 PM on Saturday\, September 6. The Arboretum remains open during its normal hours\, 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Park users are encouraged to stop by the Visitor Center\, 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM for maps and information about navigating around work sites during the event. Trails around the Redwood Collection including Wildwood Trail will be impacted by arborist work\, and hikers should expect detours to be in place for the duration of the work. While the public cannot directly participate\, visitors are welcome to observe professional tree care activities from a safe distance. Highlights often include arborists climbing into the canopy\, chainsaw work\, and pruning.

SUMMARY:Qigong
DESCRIPTION:Looking to slow down\, breathe deeper\, and move with intention? Join instructor Steven for a calming Qigong session beneath the canopy of the Hoyt Arboretum.

SUMMARY:Qigong
DESCRIPTION:Looking to slow down\, breathe deeper\, and move with intention? Join instructor Steven for a calming Qigong session beneath the canopy of the Hoyt Arboretum. Qigong (pronounced “chee-gong”) is an ancient practice from Chinese medicine that combines gentle movements\, breathwork\, and mindful posture to cultivate a deep sense of inner peace. The low-impact meditative nature makes it great for all levels whether you’re looking to reduce stress\, improve balance\, or feel a little more grounded. Come move with the rhythm of nature and leave feeling refreshed—body and mind. This event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum\, and registration is required through their website.
