That's right, it's been 10 years since the very first Save The Giants Jam, when a small group of musicians and concerned citizens got together to play music and raise awareness about the fate of the beautiful giant sequoias of Martins Street. Back then we had no idea if we could actually save the giants. In fact, most of us thought we couldn't, but we wanted people to be aware of what was going on, and we didn't want to to loose more giant trees around our city. But now here we are, 10 years later, and the giants are growing strong. The land is a widely visited park, and the actions of the the people who stood up to speak for the trees caused the city council to amend the tree code. These three trees have in turn saved hundreds more across our city, and we think that's something worth celebrating. So please join us on Saturday, June 21st, for a 10th anniversary Jam! We'll have 3 bands, cold drinks, and big beautiful trees overhead. More details to come soon!

We are excited to announce the date for our beloved annual tradition, The Lighting of the Sequoias. Please join us from 3-6pm on Sunday, Dec. 15th at Save The Giants Park. We will have live music, hot and cold drinks, a raffle for Blazers tickets, and lots of cool park merchandise like hats, T-shirts and glasses. Come support the little park that could! Celebrate the community efforts to save these trees and hear the fascinating story of how it all happened. And see the lights which go all the way to the top! What a beautiful sight to behold...

Please join us for our favorite holiday tradition. We'll have music from Alexa Wiley, the Cleveland High School Brass Band, and more! Hot and Cold Drinks! We will gather beneath these trees and share the story of how they were saved over 8 years ago by this community. It's a truly joyful event, and the lights go ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP of the tallest sequoia tree. Thank you to our friends at Oregon Tree Care for climbing up there to make that happen!

The holiday tradition is back! This Sunday, Dec. 11th, between 3-6pm, we will be gathering at Save The Giants Park to Celebrate the efforts which saved these magnificent trees. Please join us for hot and cold beverages, a raffle for Blazers tickets, live music, and over 1000 feet of awesome lights strung all the way to the top of the tallest sequoia tree around. Special thanks to our friends at Oregon Tree Care for climbing all the way to the top to make it happen. We haven't gathered for the holidays at the park since 2020 and we are so happy to be able to do it again, finally. We'd love to have you, your friends, and family join us. We'll have tents in case of rain, though the trees do a pretty great job of providing shelter. See you there!

We are so excited to announce that events are happening once again at our park. Please join us this Saturday, June 25th, for a fun afternoon of live music, refreshments, and tree celebration. This is the weekend of the famous Eastmoreland Neighborhood Garage Sale so come browse for bargains and stay for a drink under the giant sequoias!

,Hello!  We hope you and your family are staying healthy and sane during this long quarantine.  We have been so happy to see so many people visiting the park during this time. It reminds us of the importance of preserving places like this for everyone to enjoy. Please do keep in mind though that the park is small and while it remains open to visitors, we need to ensure that social distancing and wise practices are being followed. Playgrounds across the country are closed during this outbreak because touching surfaces which have been touched by others is a possible form of transmission. If you bring your kids to the park, please have them refrain from climbing upon things or picking up and moving objects. The same goes with adults sitting on the benches. In normal times we would encourage this type of interaction, but until this pandemic passes, we do not want our park being a point of transmission. As you visit, keep in mind that many others will do the same during the day. So for now, enjoy the trees, gaze up at them, walk around, take pictures and enjoy their presence, and please limit your visits to looking and not touching, for now.  

​May we all gather soon, in better times!

Thank you to all of those who stood ready to come see the outdoor film screening on Saturday night. We thought we'd have a break in the weather but in the end couldn't get the projector and sound set up with the rain falling so had to postpone it.  So now you have another chance to see it!  We will be screening the film at 8pm on Thursday, Sept 12 at Save The Giants Park, 3658, SE Martins Street.  Please bring a chair and/or a blanket and join us for what we know we be a special evening.  Filmmaker Luz Carasa has compiled some amazing footage of the battle to save these giant sequoia trees from destruction back in 2015.  What better place to watch this inspiring story than under the vary trees which are the stars of the film?
