Hello, Rebecca welcome to the group.  You have found a fellow Oregonian. 
I live in Oregon City and have been raising CP for some time.  I know of
several people in the Portland/Oregon City area who raise CP and will let
you know of them if you are interested.  You might also be interested in
the Pacific Northwest CP group which is a group of collectors based out
of Seattle.  Kevin Snively, the treasurer for the International
Carnivorous Plant Society (I.C.P.S.) is a member and he frequents this
list.  How big is your collection?  If you are interested in adding to
your collection, leave me a message, I am starting to over flow with
plants.
