Skagit Valley Tulip Festival

Poster

The Tulip Festival got off to a late start this year, as the blooms were not out on time. (Poster warns Bloom Date according to Mother Nature.) We still have a few more days to enjoy the glorious fields of colorful flowers, and fun events. There are wonderful shops and stands where you can order tulips for next years planting and lots of crafts and gifts. Food vendors, wine tasting, and fun little towns along the way. This is beautiful country and a good family outing. If you cannot get here, go online anyway and order your tulips to be mailed to you around October.

For more information go to www.TulipFestival.org

There you will find more events, and maps to direct you to the fields.

Sandra - Those are really wonderful and colorful pictures of tulips.  The middle picture creates a flower rainbow.  It's really spectacular.  Also, regarding your previous blog post, I am also a Wayne Dyer fan.

Glad you like the photos of the Tulip Festival.  It is really something to see.  The last time I went there was one big field that made a US Flag.  Will never forget it, but can't find the photo.

Sandra, thank you for sharing these beautiful photos.  I love tulips and hope that one day, "maybe when I retire" (ha) I will be able to visit and see them for myself.  Lets keep inspiring each other and hope the future will be bright and prosperous!

Unfortunately, it is one of the things I don't get around to due to the constraints of time, but someday I will go back again.  It is an incredible sight.
