Step into Champoeg's 1860's Kitchen Garden Past




Hi- On Saturday, September 6, 2008, my daughter and I went to Champoeg State Park for the afternoon. It has been a few years back since I have been to the Champoeg Park as an adult. This was a great place to visit when going to middle school on one of those state history field trips.
Here is a piece of the Champoeg Visitor Center that I enjoyed. The Kitchen Garden sits between the center and the historic Manson barn. The garden is a replicate of what it is believed a kitchen garden looked like in the 1860's. If you are lucky, when in the gift shop, a free will offering goes for the fresh produce that the garden reaps.
