Dear Friends,

Get ready to immerse yourself in the heart of Oregon at the 2024 Love, Oregon Festival at Camp Colton! From August 30 to September 1, join us for a celebration that is pure enchantment, filled with unforgettable moments and honoring the true essence of our incredible state.

Why Love, Oregon?
Because Love, Oregon is about a million joyous moments that celebrate our local heroes – the farmers, ranchers, chefs, brewers, vintners, coffee roasters, beverage makers, musicians, artists, and the breathtaking outdoor spaces that make Oregon so special. It’s a festival where every detail is crafted to make you fall in love with Oregon all over again.

Feel the Magic:
From the moment you arrive, you'll be surrounded by the serene beauty of Camp Colton’s lush forests and sparkling streams. Picture yourself sipping on wine with Anne Hubatch of Helioterra, indulging in mouthwatering farm-to-table meals crafted by Chef Keith Bidwell, and relishing delightful desserts by Sarah Bellum’s Bakery. Each meal, included in your ticket, is a celebration of Oregon’s rich culinary heritage.
GET YOUR TICKETS HERE.

Hear the Music:
Let the enchanting sounds of Kris Deelane, Freddy Trujillo, Nathan Earle, WREN the Band, JuJuBa, and many more sweep you off your feet. Discover hidden musical acts in our "Hear, Hike and Seek - Music Scavenger in the Woods" and sing along at the campfire under a starlit sky. And don’t miss the secret band reveal on August 9th – it’s going to be legendary!

Explore and Create:
Dive into a variety of inspiring workshops that feed your soul and ignite your creativity. Learn to grow your own mushrooms, explore the health benefits of Blue Zone strategies, and find out how music and nature can uplift your mood. Engage in yoga and meditation sessions, try your hand at fly fishing with Oregon’s oldest Fly Fishing Club, and stencil your own Love, Oregon t-shirt in Shady Grove’s art class. There’s something for everyone to discover and enjoy.

Love, Oregon Love, Oregon. Love, Oregon brings together musicians, artists, changemakers, food and drink creators, and producers.

This is a great program to support!

Help me support Solar Oregon - a non-profit solar education organization and our upcoming event – our fifth annual Go Zero Tour of zero energy homes on October 14th.

Tours are both in- person (drive/bike yourself) and virtual tours. The press release is attached. The in-person tours this year are all in NE Portland and an easy bike ride. Features include an ADU, EV charging stations, heat pump water heaters, energy recovery ventilators, photovoltaic systems, super insulation, a home glass studio, and more. These homes all produce more energy with their PV systems (and energy conservation) than they use on an annual basis. All good for us and our climate.
