Forest Grove ReStore Expands With Repurposed Building from Countryman Estates

West Tuality Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore is expanding, per the recycling and upgrading of a structure moved from what will become the Habitat affiliate’s latest house-building project, Countryman Estates. The public is invited to attend a ribbon cutting for the ReStore extension on Friday, July 28 at 10 a.m. at the ReStore at 3731 Pacific Avenue in Forest Grove, Oregon. Special sales and activities will also occur Friday July 28th and Saturday July 29th at the ReStore during regular business hours, 9 am to 5 pm each day. The building was deconstructed, then reconstructed, with the help of participants in Portland Youth Builders (PYB), a nonprofit that has helped thousands of young people change their lives through a combination of education, vocational training, counseling, career development, and long term support, as well as with the help of our core group of home-building volunteers.
