(At the Intersection of NW Couch and NW 2nd Ave.)Annual Biomimicry on Bikes experience. ” To Planet Repair Institute… and beyond! ” Join us on this casual ride along the Springwater to visit the Planet Repair Institute, a living, breathing node for Neighborhood Repair, embedded in the neighborhood of Sellwood, Portland OR!
