Tofurky Trot 2023!

November 23, 2023

Kick off Thanksgiving morning celebrating compassion, fresh air, friends, and gratitude with the annual Portland Tofurky Trot. This event welcomes the whole family, including strollers and friendly pups, to Trot a 5K (3.1 miles) at your own pace to benefit Oregon farm sanctuaries.

Trot kicks off at 9am from the Oaks Park Dance Pavilion. The Pavilion is stroller and wheelchair-accessible. Please email us with any questions.

This year, the Tofurky Trot features a fully paved course, guiding participants across the Sellwood Bridge with just a single street crossing! https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/5769989701

Volunteer roles include positions that are indoor-only and may be done seated; positions that require walking the course; positions that are a mix of indoor and outdoor help that require some limited walking, but no additional physical tasks.
