Celebrate with us:
Tree Farmer of the Year Tour and Picnic
July 26, 2008, 2:00-7:00 PM
In keeping with the small woodland owner’s tradition of exploring new ideas, instead of having a morning event with lunch, we have planned an afternoon event culminating with dinner for our Tree Farmer of the Year Tour and Picnic. Hope you can come.
Please RSVP. Phone (503)324-7825 or email us at bshumaker@coho.net
