| Once a year, during the Keizer Iris Festival, Schreiners lets registered "wanderers" walk through their fields on a 5K or 10K walk. Even though bloom was barely starting this year, it was still an interesting walk through part of their 200 acres!

I did see a few intriguing TB seedlings:
But the humongous compost hill was a rare treat too:
I suspect this was only one of many compost piles --each bigger than my own little plot of irises! |

| 200 acres!! I'd love to have 1 acre! Thanks for showing us this perspective of their operation. |

| Wow! I am so jealous. I have purchased several times from Schrieners and have even contemplated a trip out west just to visit. Thanks for sharing, I bet it was spectacular to see the 200 acres of iris. |
