Hi Everyone!
The Gardiner Historic District, which encompasses nearly all of Gardiner,has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1994. Several steamboats were constructed at Gardiner for trade up the Umpqua River Outside the remnants of the International Paper mill in Gardiner, Oregon.A plywood plant opened in Gardiner in 1954, joining the lumber mill (or sawmill) that had been in the town for many years. Gardiner was formerly the site of the first International Paper mill on the West Coast. The paper mill operated from 1963 until 1999, and was one of the largest employers on the southern Oregon Coast. The mill buildings were demolished in 2006.A railroad, the Longview, Portland & Northern (LP&N), served the IP mill until it closed. The railroad runs from East Gardiner Junction to the old plant site. The old railroad. Yes, that would be my car.

Take any kind of container (no drainage holes) Place 2 layers of toilet tissue down. |
Next place a cloth on top of the tissue. I used cheese cloth and doubled it.
|
Now poor water over it until soaked. . |
Take the carrot seeds and sprinkle them over the cloth.
|
Cover with plastic wrap and poke small holes in it. Then place in a dark warm place.
|
I started to use plastic wrap from a roll and then remembered I got these from the $ tree a few years ago. |
They come in 3 sizes and are quite funny looking
|
Then pull it open. They aren't very sturdy but it worked perfect for this. |
