Taste Melons in Albany or Tomatoes in Lake Oswego, Plant a Kitchen Garden Container in Salem, and Savor Apple Sausage in Hillsboro

Whether you are bringing in the harvest, planning next year’s food crops or just want to sample the Northwest’s bounty, Le Tour des Plants has something to offer. Participating garden centers and nurseries will have coffee, tea, pastries, wine, lavender lemonade and barbecue, along with a celebrity cook-off, recipes, and food crop classes.







Look for a bumper crop of tastings, cooking classes, and food production activities during Le Tour des Plants at: Lavender at Stonegate, Bauman Farms, Boring Bark & Landscape Materials, Dancing Oaks Nursery, Drake’s 7 Dees, Ferguson’s Fragrant Nursery, Garland Nursery, Heirloom Roses, Larsen Farm Nursery (both locations), Out in the Garden Nursery, Dennis’ Seven Dees (Lake Oswego), Madrona Hills ACE Hardware, Red Ridge Farms, Nichols Garden Nursery, Secret Garden Growers, Shorty’s Garden & Home (Vancouver), and Smith Berry Barn.










Get going

For convenience, garden centers are grouped into three general areas, North, Mid-Willamette, and South Willamette. Here is a preview of the South-Willamette Group.
