We're partway through November — aka National Gratitude Month — and we’re gearing up for a season of thankfulness.

Whether it's taking a crisp evening walk through Laurelhurst Park, the first sip of Portland Cider Co.'s new seasonal ciders, or a bike ride along your favorite section of the Springwater Corridor — we want to know what you’re thankful for here in Rose City.

We city editors are thankful for a lot — our readers, Pomodoro pizzas at Cafe Olli, shows at the 'Schnitz, and the opportunity to keep Portland informed for nearly a full year now.

Send us your sentimental stories and we could highlight your gratitude in a newsletter closer to Thanksgiving. Plus, we’ve got dozens of seasonal events + fall features along the way.

Bonus: While you’re feeling gracious, check out our volunteer guide to donate your time, skills, money, or talents to 40+ local organizations.
