Corvallis Flower Basket Program
The Corvallis Flower Basket Program began in 1977, operated by City Parks and Recreation Department. By 1994, the Flower Basket Program had grown to 60 baskets and the city's budget could no longer support it. Encouraged by the city, a group of volunteers formed an independent, non-profit, tax-exempt organization to operate the Flower Basket Program. The Program has now grown to nearly 250 baskets each year.
Continuation of this lovely tradition of adorning Downtown Corvallis with hanging flower baskets during the five months of summer relies solely on the support of civic organizations, businesses, and private citizens. Your donation helps to keep the Flower Basket Program alive.
Each year, more than 200 lovely hanging baskets enhance the beauty of Downtown Corvallis throughout the summer months. With your help, these beautiful flower baskets will continue adorning Downtown Corvallis.
Cost to plant and maintain each basket is approximately $65, but any donated amount is appreciated. Please send your TAX DEDUCTIBLE donation today, so that we may continue this lovely tradition. Please make checks payable to: Corvallis Flower Basket Program and mail to: PO Box 269, Corvallis 97339. Please indicate if you wish to be sent a receipt.
At summer's end in September, when baskets are taken down, they are sold to the public at Corvallis Fall Festival in Central Park. All money from basket sales goes toward the following year's Flower Basket Program.
