Every spring, our Chapter holds a spectacular garden fair at the

Clackamas County Fairgrounds in Canby. It is held on the weekend

before Mothers Day. Last year we had over 15,000 people show up

and that number increases every year. There will be vendors selling

hanging baskets, bedding plants, annuals, perennials, vegetables, herbs,

shrubs, trees and lots of garden art. In addition, there is free pH soil

testing and plenty of Master Gardeners to answer questions. There will

be sandwiches, hotdogs, pizza, chips, coffee, sodas and pastries.. Be sure to

bring a wagon or a cart labeled with your name to discourage anyone taking it.

Some of the vendors are wholesale and this is the only opportunity for the

public to be able to buy from them.

This year we will again offer the: 10 - Minute University
