Cora Keogh (Kee-OH), Membership Services Specialist

Cora comes to the Hardy Plant Society of Oregon with years of experience in caring for customers and organizing special events for non- profits in the region, most notably the Portland Art Museum. She enjoys helping HPSO members get unstuck when interacting with our organization, facilitating member-exclusive workshops, and listening to members' input on how HPSO can better serve us all. Cora's background has been centered in the fine arts and restoration. At the front end of her working life, she worked as a florist, savoring the detailed manual work involved in commemorating some of life's biggest moments through floral arrangements. As a gardener, she focused on seasonal vegetables and fruits. At the height of that passion, she grew and preserved food for her entire family on her 1/4 acre plot.
