About this event

Mission: To preserve and make available to the public the history of forestry in Oregon, and to provide a place and opportunity to research and publish information to Oregon's forest history.

Volunteer Opportunities:
Lend a hand by dusting, polishing, and giving the museum a fresh look. We'll be repositioning some exhibits and cabinets for a better visitor experience. You may also help remove and clean blinds before rehanging them.


Important Information:
There is a picnic site on the State Forestry campus. Snacks, beverages, and lunch will be available. Mill Creek runs through the campus. Portable restrooms are available on-site.

  • Feel free to bring your own bottled water for hydration.
  • Please bring your own gloves if you prefer for both indoor and outdoor tasks.
  • Dress for the weather and wear closed-toe shoes only. Be aware that some tools on display have sharp edges, and old wood can have splinters.
  • We need 20 volunteers, minimum age 8. Children under 8 are welcome, but please contact us beforehand.


Bonus for Train Enthusiasts: We have a HO model train display that needs some love to get it running smoothly again. If you have experience and interest, we'd love your help!

Free parking is available on-site, no permit required.

Meet us at Building A by the entrance, where you'll find the CCC Worker Memorial Statue.
