MASTER GARDENER PROGRAM — Workshops & Events
Join the WSU Extension Clark County Master Gardener program for an On the Road Tour and leave the driving to us. Sit back and enjoy visits to three nurseries or farms.
“Spring Fever”. “Fiebre de primavera.” “Varfeber”. ” Fievre du printemps.” Noun – A feeling of restlessness and excitement felt at the beginning of spring. Are you restless on those rainy days you’re stuck in the house perusing seed catalogs? Excited at the prospect of planting new things and getting your hands dirty in your garden?
Join the Clark County Master Gardeners for our first tour of 2026. Meet in the parking lot of the 78th Street Heritage Farm at 8:15AM to board our vans for a tour of some Portland locations to help ease the transition into our next gardening season. Our first stop will be Garden Fever where we will be treated to talk on what’s new and what’s tried and true for 2026.
Our next stop will be a Portland staple – Portland Nursery – to get more info on great things for our gardens. There will be ample time at both locations to pick out your new favorite plant.
Next, we will break for lunch at McMenamins Cedar Hills Pub. They have a menu featuring sandwiches, salads and burgers. Lunch is on your own.
At our final stop of the day, Deby Barnhart of Cornell Farm will speak to the group about plant diversity. There will be time for shopping.
