WASHOUGAL – The popular annual Plant Fair hosted by the Camas-Washougal Historical Society will be held Saturday, May 18 and Sunday, June 23 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Two Rivers Heritage Museum, 1 Durgan Street in Washougal.
“Each spring we collect healthy plants from local gardens and yards to hold this popular event,” explained Alma Ladd, plant fair organizer, and museum ‘plant lady.’ “We see lots of familiar faces year after year. Community members love coming out for our great prices and unique items to add color or interest to their flowerbed and landscaping.”
Plants for sale at this year’s event will include creeping bell flowers, Solomon’s seal, forsythia, red hellebores, violets, Hosta lilies, pink and white peonies, wildflowers, and other native plants. “We also have a limited supply of Camas Lilies available, and they go quickly,” said Ladd.
Funds from the sale will help the work of the CWHS to preserve and make available historic information and artifacts that tell the stories of the history, people and development of the Washougal and Camas communities.
Museum hours are currently Saturdays only from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission price is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors, $2 for students and free for CWHS members and children under 5.
