There’s plenty of space to spread out safety outdoors at the 80-acre Oregon Garden in Silverton. Wander through the American Conifer Society reference garden, study the beds of culinary and medicinal herbs, and wave at the clay pot “family” at the children’s garden. Don’t forget to stop and smell the exotic roses.
The well-designed site’s horticultural biodiversity has been its trademark since Oregon nurseries donated plant materials, from Pacific Sunset maple trees to rare Northwest native trilliums, to convert an Arabian horse ranch and Christmas tree farm into a walkable encyclopedia of nature.
Holiday Happenings
Keeping you informed about holiday events and attractions:
• A heads-up: Aaron Meyer had to cancel live holiday concerts, which he has performed for years (it would have been the 20th anniversary), but the Aaron Meyer Christmas Special will air on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, Thursday-Friday, Dec. 24-25, on FOX 12 (KPTV) and FOX 12+ (KPDX).
It features the rock violinist Meyer, The Brown Sisters, some of Meyer s violin students and more.
The event attracted sponsors, and good friend Ken Wright of KWCellars in Carlton offered his space to record the concert.
Show times are 10 p.m. Dec. 24 and 6:30 a.m. and 10 p.m. Dec. 25 on KPTV and 8 p.m. Dec. 25 on KPDX.
