I have heard about it, but never visited. That would be a great little trip up the valley. We bought two unique fruit trees from Raintree (a danube cherry and a mirabelle plum), but I so wish they were closer so we didn't have the pay the shipping! I haven't visited One Green World in Molalla yet, and hear that it has a lot of less common fruits and fruit varieties. And thanks for the chicken clarification. We have more than 10,000 sf in our lot (about 14k, I think), so I guess we are legal! Tona-

They are growing so fast. We live in the city too and were told that if your property is 0 - 10,000 sq. feet you are allowed 4 chickens. We are still finishing up the coop. We are also big blueberry fans and wonder if you have ever been to OSU's Blueberry Field Day. We when last year and ate hundreds of different varieties. My husband and I both choose Elizabeth (independently of each other!) as the best flavor. We just got our Raintree Nursery catalog last week and noticed that they are now selling it.
