Our lavender bushes are going crazy this year! I’m putting together a few bouquets to freshen it up inside today. 🪻💜

Most Oregon gardeners spend years trying to fix their clay soil before planting anything in it. These natives skip that entire conversation and establish just fine without a single bag of amendment.

Thanks to our amazing Public Works crew!

🚧 It’s National Public Works Week, and we’re giving a big shoutout to Halsey’s Public Works Crew! 👷‍♂️🛠️

From fixing water leaks and maintaining streets to caring for City parks, buildings, and equipment, our crew works hard every day to keep Halsey running smoothly. A lot of what they do happens behind the scenes, but their impact is seen across our entire community.

What makes it even more impressive? There are only TWO crew members serving the whole town, and one is on call 24/7 for emergencies.

Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and willingness to do it all for Halsey—we appreciate you!

We’re serving up a whole lot of gratitude for The Honey Hole Bar & Grill and their generous donation to the Halsey Public Library BOOK-It 5K!

These donations keep us dishing out free and fun programs for our community—like the food preservation equipment in our Library of Things! Their support helps keep our library stocked with opportunities.

From great food to great community spirit, The Honey Hole Bar & Grill always brings something special to the table. ✨

Be sure to join us on May 9th at Halsey Memorial Park 🏁

Registration is open all the way up to the morning of the race. Come run (or walk!) for a great cause!
