Try Local First |
Spread the Sunshine!
Are you ready for Spring? I know I am. The daffodils are starting to bloom, and the trees have a hint of pink - just ready to explode to those shades of bright fuchsia and magenta. Time to get out in the yard and trim, clean-up and plant. When you get ready to plant remember to "Try Local First." Local nurseries provide quality flowers, trees, vegetable starts, and herbs. So, it is not just a price comparison - there is quality and vibrancy to consider. You can tell the difference and I have a "brown" thumb!

Mt. Hood Territory's WONDERful Trails
Mt. Hood has been recognized as one of Oregon's 7 Wonders. Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory is a land of many wonders. Scenic, historic and adventurous, these attractions encompass the very essence of the territory.
- Mt. Hood Scenic Byway: Encompassing some of the most scenic country you will ever see, the Mt. Hood Scenic Byway takes you by breathtaking views of namesake Mt. Hood, over rushing rivers, through sweeping panoramas of the fertile valley farmland, and along the route that early pioneers traveled on the historic Barlow Road.
