Review of World Forestry Center

This is a fantastic educational resource for children and families ! As an adult I found it a bit dull, only because I didn t realize it s geared towards children. The museum is a broad overview of forestry, with great emphasis on types of forests around the world, the basic structure of a forest, and a history of the logging industry in Oregon. There is also a big emphasis on sustainability in logging which is great. Lots of interactive exhibits that kids will find exciting, and lots of illustrative exhibits. I d say kids from 6 to 12 would probably enjoy this place most. I would pair this museum with a walk in the arboretum for some for a hands-on experience! Take the MAX, it s steps away from the Washington Park station!
