Online! 2020 Willamette Valley Lavender Festival
In light of the continued restrictions and health and safety risks due to COVID-19, all IN-PERSON EVENTS for this year’s Willamette Valley Lavender Festival & Paint Out scheduled to take place July 11-12 are CANCELLED.
This festival is a cherished celebration throughout the valley and beyond; the decision to cancel is not made lightly. Now in its 16th year, this year’s festival will take place ENTIRELY ONLINE the week of July 6 – 12.
So tune in, find some lavender to smell, and celebrate with us! The week of the online festival we will be sharing all things lavender – DIY lavender projects, lavender facts, local lavender farms, lavender recipes, and more – on the festival website (https://www.wvlavenderfestival.org), on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/WillametteValleyLavenderFestival) and on the Chehalem Cultural Center instagram (https://www.instagram.com/chehalemculturalcenter). We will also have an online Lavender Marketplace, where guests can find all of their favorite lavender vendors and buy their products online: www.wvlavenderfestival.org/2020-online-festival.
While we may not be able to breathe in the scents of lavender together, we are still going to celebrate this beautiful flower that graces our valley.
Use the hashtag #OnlineLavenderFest20 and we will share your lavender pictures and celebrations!
