Planters Days, first held in 1922, is the longest continuously running civic celebration in the State of Washington.
What better way to begin your summer than a visit to historic Woodland, Washington and our farm, just 25 miles north of Portland, Oregon on interstate 5: your southern gateway to the Mt. St. Helens National Volcanic Monument and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
Planters Days is a four day festival celebrating the completed construction of the dikes along the Columbia and Lewis Rivers preventing the annual flooding in the Woodland area. The festival is family centric, with entertainment for all ages.
Thursday includes a children’s parade, sidewalk chalk art, carnival rides, coration of the Planters Days Queen and Fireworks to end the day.
Friday includes Antique/new farm equipment, Dawg Father Dog Show and the carnival
Saturday includes parade, Saturday Market, Military Vehicle show, Fireman’s muster, bed races, cruise in and a band to end the day
Sunday includes an all day car show and water ski show. Come and visit our farm to pet and feed over 40 alpacas including two babies less than two weeks old. Shop in our Alpaca Farm Boutique. Investigate income and lifestyle opportunities. In the spirit of the car show we will have our farm working 1930 Model A Pickup on display at the farm.
