Master Gardeners will be in the Gardens sharing how to start gardening … Gardening Made Simple. Anyone can garden, almost anywhere. The site buildings are Open 1:30 til 3:30 with our Talk at 2 pm for 30 mins. As will our Living Historians to visit about our history and gardening then and now. Some things have changed, but not. George Washington was practicing Garden Rotation 250 years ago. It is still a wise practice. He used “Organic Gardening” also, though they didn’t give it such a fancy catch phrase.
Join us for an evening of live gospel music performed by Kevin Mills & The Mark Dubbeld Family.
Kevin Mills is an accomplished singer who sang several years nationally and internationally with the group “Keepers Of The Faith”. Kevin has a beautiful bass voice and has done several solo CDs. After Kevin retired from Keepers Of The Faith, Kevin and his family settled in Rochester WA.
The Mark Dubbeld Family is from Moneta, Virginia. The performers are Mark, Janene, Elena and Britton Dubbeld. They are known for their originally penned songs and family harmony. They sing at churches and venues of every size across the United States.
Both groups have been featured singers at the National Quartet Convention (NQC) in Tennessee which is the largest southern gospel event in the US.
Winlock will be The Dubbeld’s first stop on their west-coast tour this summer. It’s a rare opportunity to get to see them in person in this part of the country and a huge bonus to get to see/hear Kevin at the same concert!
Please bring your family, friends and neighbors and come to Winlock to enjoy the concert!
