The Oregon Parks & Recreation Department and Portland General Electric, invite you to participate in this third annual Festival of The Land Event. Explore how the land and water give us life. Learn about the geologic importance of the canyons and cultural diversity as you walk along three distinctive time periods: past, present and future land uses around three Oregon rivers. We look forward to you joining to celebrate Oregon State Park’s Day along the shore of spectacular Lake Billy Chinook. You hear stories and can see what life was like for native people living in a teepee, travelers coming north or west in covered wagons, see a historic chuckwagon and sample Dutch oven treats, pet or feed a baby goat, bring home something from our farmer's market grown or made here in Central Oregon, learn about sustainable gardening and how to attract pollinators, how to protect your home against wildfire, there will be tons of fun activities for kids, enjoy amazing food, and musical performances. Fun for the whole family!
