Glide Wildflower Show: What it is, how it's put together, history, and homemade pies


Listen Later

Glide Wildflower Show organizers, Becky McRae, Debbie Barbrae, and Dianne Mascarello describe the inner workings of the world-renouned Glide Wildflower Show. The show this year is April 27 and 28 in Glide Oregon, east of Roseburg. The history of the show is described, starting in 1965 to the present day. Hundreds (600 to 700) of plant species are collected, in bloom when possible, identified by botanists, and beautifully displayed at the Glide Community Center, along with great home-made pies for sale. It is one of my favorite events of the year, with information on native plants, noxious weeds, rare plants, tree species, etc. DON'T MISS IT. More information at:
