Kirkwood Wildflower Festival

Each year beginning in late June to early July, the wildflowers in the Tahoe Basin begin a show which rivals anything we humans can do on July 4th. The area from Carson Pass westward, including Kirkwood, is center stage in nature's ritual. In late July, when the bloom is at it's peak, Kirkwood hosts their annual Wildflower Festival. The morning features guided informative hikes through seemingly endless fields . The afternoon brings the festival with live music, a fantastic selection of beers and wines, and local artisans and restaurants displaing their craft.

Saturday, August 4th, 2007 is the date. Noon is the time. The beverages will be provided by Amador County's finest wineries along with many microbrews. As always, there will be wildflower hikes (9 am and noon) and plenty for the little ones (face painting, bouncy tent, ice cream, etc.)
