Join Us at the Master Gardener Spring Garden Fair!

Join the Clackamas Soil and Water Conservation District at the 35th Annual Spring Garden Fair on Saturday and Sunday, May 4 and 5, 2019, at the Clackamas Event Center in Canby.

Each year, the Clackamas County Master Gardeners bring together over 100 vendors of annuals and perennials, vegetable and herbs, trees and shrubs, and everything in between. There are also specialty vendors with garden art, tools, compost, and more. This two day event has plenty of free attractions for gardeners of all ages.

Conservation Information and Native Plant Trailer

The District will have a display booth located in the 4-H Hall with information of interest to home gardeners and small farmers. Outside, be sure to stop by the beautiful Native Plant Trailer which holds over 40 different varieties of native plants in varying degrees of maturity. Native plants are essential for the health and well-being of our native birds, animals, and pollinators. This trailer is provided by the Clackamas County River Water Education Team, of which the District is an active partner.

Workshops, Children’s Activities, and More
