Betsiefest is back this summer on June 28th! Please join us in our celebration of life with music, charity, picnics, frolics, and family. Thank you for being a part of Betsiefest year after year.
Essence: Betsie Och was our friend, a mother, daughter, sister, partner, and a loving spirited woman! We’ve organized and offered a music and family gathering in her honor since her death from cancer in 2010. Every year we celebrate with music, food, hugs, and smiles. This event is grassroots, donation-based, no-drama, and family-friendly. As such, your close, like-minded friends and family are welcome. Please do not spam social media with the event.
Note: In general, be prepared picnic-style. Bring your own food, water, plus snacks and beverages to share! Bring your own chairs, blankets! Be responsible in your behavior and your impact. Pack in all your supplies and pack out ALL your recycling and trash.
Doors open at 1pm.
Music starts at 3:30pm. Band lineup will be announced soon!
This gathering is an outdoor event located on a good friend's private farm.
Donations: There is a $40 suggested donation per person to attend the event. We collect donations of which proceeds are given to a beneficiary in the community. The beneficiary this year is Growing Gardens, an Oregon based 501(c)3 nonprofit growing food in schools, backyards, and correctional facilities to cultivate healthy and equitable communities.

Leave No Trace: The event is a pack-in, pack-it-out event, so please plan accordingly to carry out all trash you generate.
Camping: Overnight car camping is available with a $20 suggested donation. Bring headlamps and set up LED lanterns/glow for maximum effect. Park in the back 40, set up your camp, and relax with us. Plenty of space for a cool community of campers.
Food for purchase (only while supplies last!): Ian’s Sauce Company! So delicious! Their food offering is for-purchase and will offer tacos, nachos, corn salad, and sides! Pack in and pack out all containers and waste.
Weather: Betsiefest is rain-or-shine.
Dogs: Fully leashed only and be responsible.
