The view from Liberty Natural is stunning as it sits along the historic Barlow Road in Oregon City is truly one of a kind. Mt. Hood stands tall in the background of endless rows of fragrant lavender. The view alone makes the visit worth it, but it's the sense of community that draws visitors in year after year. This festival was created to support and provide education on sustainable agriculture in the area and spotlight small Clackamas County businesses... and it has done just that, making an experience not to miss.
