We are supported by:

OSU Extension Master Gardners will host “Let’s Talk Plants” display:
The Oregon State University Extension Master Gardener™ program educates Oregonians about the art and science of growing and caring for plants. We are in 27 counties across the state, and train thousands of Master Gardener volunteers. OSU Extension Master Gardeners are volunteer educators, neighbors, and on-the-ground researchers who serve their community with solid training in science-based, sustainable gardening and a love of lifelong learning.

Guest Quilter   Kathy Cardiff
The Cottage at Cardiff Farms

Kathy Cardiff has been creating and designing for as long as she can remember. She has always had a love for art and drawing, carrying sketchpads with her wherever she goes. Her mother, a talented seamstress, taught her to sew at a young age but it wasn’t until Kathy’s children were in high school that she combined her love for designing and sewing. Now, she turns her beautiful sketches into cozy textile designs for the home. She draws most of her design inspiration from nature and gardening. In fact, if she is not sketching or sewing something, you will most likely find her out digging in the dirt in her beloved garden.

Guest Artist   Peggy Gelbrich
Yellow House Quilter 

Peggy has been quilting and helping others to learn the joy of quilt making for over 40 years. As a quilt teacher, sharing the art of quilt making is her passion. She has taught quilt making across the United States and in Canada teaching at large guild classes, quilting retreats and small private groups in her home. Her teaching style won her a nomination for Quilt Teacher of the Year sponsored by the Professional Quilter. Peggy loves making traditional quilt patterns look new again with modern fabrics and techniques. She enjoys trying and learning different techniques in the quilt making process, always looking for an easier way to conquer those seemingly intricate patterns. Originally from Oregon, Peggy and her family spent 22 years in Ketchikan, Alaska. She has returned to Oregon and now lives and quilts in her yellow house.
