A Summer Shopping Spree: Hortlandia Reimagined
If you haven’t reserved June 26th on your calendar, please do it now!   Hortlandia, our usual spring plant and art sale, is being re-configured for a summer outdoor sale – a one-day event during the hours of 9am to 5pm.   And in order to keep everyone safe during the pandemic, Hortlandia will be done quite a bit differently this year.

For starters, entry will be by registration for specific timeslots, and HPSO members will get the benefit of early registration.  This new registration procedure will allow HPSO to more readily comply with state and local Covid regulations on crowd size, etc.   In addition, all shoppers, vendors, and volunteers will be required to wear masks and to adhere to social distancing guidelines from people who are not in your “group”.  

The outdoor event is expected to have at least 38 specialty plant vendors and garden artists offering rare/unusual plants and custom crafted garden art.  Woo-hoo!  

“Summer Hortlandia” will NOT be held at our usual place at the Portland EXPO Center.  Instead, it will be held at the Westside Commons (formerly known as the Washington County Fairgrounds) in Hillsboro.  “Old-timer” HPSO members probably remember that HPSO’s original spring and fall plant sales were held at the Washington County Fairgrounds.  So, in a sense, HPSO is going back to its roots.  [Pun intended.]

Also different from our usual spring Hortlandia (where we typically have a plant holding area, central check-out lines, book sales, etc.), shoppers will pay the plant and art vendors directly for their purchases.  Shoppers are also welcome to bring their own carts and wagons to carry their plants.

Please understand that this event is still a fundraiser for HPSO.  Our usual spring Hortlandia is HPSO’s biggest fundraiser each year with our vendors sharing a percentage of their profits.  But this year, mainly because attendance will be limited due to Covid regulations, HPSO’s main fundraising will come with your paid timed entry to the event for morning or mid-day timeslots.  Free admission will still be available in the late afternoon.    Register here: 2021 Hortlandia registration
