Nash Mauck, 21 months, of Gresham, enjoyed looking at the colorful tulips Friday afternoon at the Tulip Festival. He came with his stepmother, Mackenzie Day, and her mother, Ruth Day. It was the family’s first-ever trip to the Tulip Festival.
Tulip Festival founder Barb Iverson announced Friday the festival will be extended one week because of the late-blooming flowers. The festival will now end May 6.
WOODBURN — Rain and cold weather stayed away long enough the past several days, allowing the tulip fields to blossom almost overnight, turning wet and green fields into near picture perfect conditions.
