The Aloha Community Library Association’s third annual tulip sale will take place this spring. From April 23 through 25 during open hours, beautiful tulips from VanderZanden Farms in Hillsboro will be for sale in the library for $10 per bunch!

Pre-sales begin March 16. You can order and pay for your tulips ahead of time in person at the library or online after the 16th. We cannot guarantee the color availability of tulips. That’s up to Mother Nature!
