5th Annual Lavender Valley Acres Festival
Saturday, June 6, 2009
5 miles west of Apache, Oklahoma

It may be a small lavender show in the middle of the wheat fields, but you sure wouldn’t know it. I guess this little festival doesn’t realize it shouldn’t be so popular being in southwest Oklahoma near Lawton. But hey, come out and be surprised…again! Last year some people made a nice day of it coming down from OKC. Music and food, vendors and plants--lavender, naturally. Lavender in Oklahoma...not as surprising as you might think. http://www.lavendervalleyacres.com

2009 Paseo Arts Festival
Memorial Day Weekend, May 23, 24, 25
Between NW 30th and Dewey and N.W. 28th and Walker
in the Paseo Arts District of NW Oklahoma City

We have people tell us that they like the Paseo Festival better than the big April Arts show downtown. I’ve heard it said that it has a friendlier more common-man sort of atmosphere. Well, whatever the reason, it’s a huge crowd pleaser. Come on down for the art-fine or otherwise, dance to the music, admire the jewelry, and just have a great time. We’ll be located down at the south end of the street where we were last year. You have three days, three chances to enjoy the Festival. Don’t miss it. http://www.thepaseo.com/events/paseofestival.html

Fieldhouse, Subiaco Abbey and Academy,
Subiaco, Arkansas

This is the 8th annual arts festival held by the Subiaco Arts Council. This is not a huge show, but the grounds, the people and the atmosphere make it very rewarding. This would be a beautiful place to visit even without the excuse of an arts festival. http://www.subi.org/

Seminole Made in Oklahoma Festival
Saturday, September 6, 9:00 to 4:00
Main Street, Seminole

This is Seminole's first Made in OK festival. Like the organizers say, it's intent is not to generate big profits, but to have a great time for the community and for visitors. Our good friend Marilyn Stewart with Wild Things Nursery is one of the chairmen for the day, so we gladly jumped at the chance to help out her event. We're really looking forward to a fun day with friends and music, wine-tasting and food. Come on to Seminole, it'll be worth the drive. http://www.shawneesun.com/articles/2008/08/07/news/23ssc%20made%20in%20oklahoma.txt

31st Annual Midsummer Nights Fair
Friday & Saturday, July 11/12, 6:00PM to 11:00PM

Lions Park is a former baseball field with only the lights left. So after the sun gets behind the tall western pines, the crowds start to come out; by 8:00 pm it's a full house. A hot July day is bearable after sunset. It's an unusual show with all kinds of interesting art. A great way to spend a summer evening.

4th Annual Lavender Valley Acres Festival
Saturday, June 14, 2008
5 miles west of Apache, Oklahoma

We were pleasantly surprised last year at how many people came out to this little lavender show. Apache is close to Lawton, but not everyone was from there. We had some people make a nice day of it coming down from OKC. Music and food, vendors and plants--lavender, naturally. Lavender in Oklahoma...not as surprising as you might think.

Southeast of Bristow, West of Okmulgee

A fine little wine party back in the woods of eastern Oklahoma. You'll need the map off the website, but it's worth the drive.

A great place to spend a weekend afternoon. The trees are cooling, the food is great, the entertainment is entertaining--what else!--and the wares are wonderful. Come by and see both usual and different arts from over eighty different vendors from all over the country.

Even if you did see the downtown Arts Festival in OKC the week before, this is a different venue...perhaps more down to earth, more everyday-people/family friendly. Come on by and say hi.

19th Annual Herbal Affair & Festival
Saturday, April 19, 2008 / 9 am to 4 pm
Downtown Triangle, 2nd and Main
Sand Springs, Oklahoma

Okay everybody, this is the big one. If you only go to one herb show all year—or every ten years!—this is the one. Don’t let the 9:00AM opening time fool you. It’s an outdoor show, customers show up at 7:00 or earlier pulling wagons or pushing strollers to get the plants and bargains they know they’ll find. I don’t know why it’s always been so huge and successful, it just always has. Vendors show up from at least seven different states, it’s the largest herb show in this part of the country. We wouldn’t miss it for the world.

Held in historic downtown Andrews Park, this thirty-three year old festival is three days of artful interest, from wood sculpture and bird houses to bead crafting and soap making. Artists from all over the Midwest show up at this festival. It’s a wonderful show in a tree shaded park. http://www.assistanceleaguenor.org/mayfair.html

Yes, this is the big one, the largest and finest herb show in the region. Here you’ll find every kind of herb and herb related product you can think of. Come listen to the speakers, sample the wonderful breads from the Mennonite ladies and see more varied herbs than you knew existed. Come early or use the free shuttle service to avoid parking problems. If you only go to one Herb Show, this is it. http://www.herbalaffairandfestival.com/

Our apologies to the hard working manager, Pat Kroblin, our fellow vendors/friends and most importantly to our customers for not being at Brookside as we had advertised and planned. Mother Nature's cold and wet reception was enough to make us reconsider driving up from Choctaw. It was very depressing for us here that Saturday morning, so we made up for it by going over to Paseo and signing up for their Memorial Day Show. We haven't done that one before. Nonetheless, we are looking forward to a great day at Sand Springs. See you there.
