Description

Leach Botanical Garden in Southeast Portland is funded by the city's Portland Parks & Recreation and donations through Leach Garden Friends.

Leach Botanical Garden, a 17-acre public garden in Southeast Portland, was facing closure in March due to lack of funds. But the garden will stay open at least through June after receiving almost $275,000 in donations in response to a plea for help, interim executive director Eric Vines said Tuesday.
