The school plant sale was a huge success! Students did rock painting, face painting, a lemonade stand and a petting zoo! We sold over half of the plants, and what was left, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders potted up and took home. Thank you for the generous donations that will help purchase supplies for next year's greenhouse classes!

They met with staffers from Senator Merkley's and Senator Wyden's offices and then were able to personally meet with Representative Cliff Bentz. The Bentz office graciously provided a private tour of the Capitol Building, including a stop inside of the House Chamber and access to parts of the building not open to the regular public. Thank you, Representative Bentz, for your generosity and this opportunity!
