What if our communities could keep the land we live on—now and for future generations? 🌱

Community Land Trusts (CLTs) are a powerful tool for building long-term stability, preserving affordability, and preventing displacement—especially for communities historically excluded from land ownership.

Join us for Understanding Community Land Trusts to learn:
• What CLTs are and how they work
• Their origins and role today
• How they help preserve community land ownership
• How they foster stability and prevent displacement

We’re excited to share that we are hosting our second Lotería de Paisanos event in collaboration with the Hillsboro Downtown Partnership (HDP)!

📍 Location: Paisanos Plaza
966 SE Oak St, Hillsboro, OR 97123
📅 Date & Time: Wednesday, April 22 | 4:00–8:00 PM

This event is all about bringing new energy to Paisanos Plaza by inviting community members who may not have visited before—or who don’t normally shop there—to come out and discover what it has to offer. We’ve intentionally planned it on one of the slower days of the week to help boost visibility and support for local businesses.

For those unfamiliar, Paisanos Plaza is a vibrant, flea market-style space in Hillsboro featuring a wide variety of vendors. While many businesses offer delicious food options, there are also vendors selling non-food items such as blankets, perfumes, cookware, medicinal herbs and plants, clothing, and more.

During Lotería de Paisanos, participants will take part in an interactive, bingo-style game designed to encourage support for these businesses. Each square on the game card represents an activity—such as following a business on social media, leaving a Google review, purchasing a food or non-food item, and more. As participants complete each activity, they mark off their card.

No need to RSVP, just show up with your friends and family!
