The Fruit Loop Wine Celebration June 21 & 22




Solstice Weekend, June 21 & 22, begins the Celebrations of Special Events in Hood River. Rapidly gaining popularity for outstanding quality and diversity, the Gorge's Wines now have their own Fruit Loop Celebration. Many will be bringing out new releases, along with Live Music, and other fun stuff.

We are having our own event here on the Lavender Farm too, called
English Lavender & Chocolate--Beauty & Decadence
See our most fragrant and beautiful lavender in full bloom, and enjoy decadant, handcrafted Loganberry Liqueur/Lavender Truffles. In spite of the March weather we have been having in June, our English Lavender is beginning to show color. It should prime, and GORGEOUS by the 21st!

Currently, our Wildflower Garden is stealing the show. Literally thousands of Lupine, in different colors, are in bloom and HUGE, some over 4' tall! The poppies are beginning to open, along with Foxglove, Daisies, Sweet William, and numerous other Oregon Native Flowers. Bring your camera, it is stunning.

Mark your calendars for the
