Join Us For Our Annual

Summer Solstice Celebration

Saturday, June 20, 2026 | 10am - 6pm | 8212 SW Barnes Rd

Join us to welcome the beginning of summer, the season of light and growth!

This year's Summer Solstice Celebration is all about pollinators. Pollinators like birds, bees, bats, butterflies, and even beetles are essential to life on our planet, from forests and meadows to farms and gardens.

Learn How To
Support Pollinators

All around our historic farm in Portland's West Hills, you'll find special displays highlighting ways to welcome pollinators into our gardens.

Raise Funds For The
Leach Botanical Garden

Calling all plant lovers — East Portland's secret garden needs help to fund its future! The 17-acre Leach Botanical Garden offers "immersive, restorative, and educational experiences in a unique landscape of native plants and horticultural collections" with a mission to "build community, celebrate nature, and inspire environmental stewardship."

5% of all sales on Saturday, June 20th will be donated to LBG. We strongly encourage you consider supporting the garden through membership, monthly donations, and the admissions fee for your visit to this deeply special place.
