Strong neighborhoods are built on relationships between neighbors, local businesses and the organizations that serve them.

As a community-based hospital, Legacy Health’s mission extends beyond providing great health care. It also means showing up alongside the local businesses who serve the same community, building trust and strengthening the connections that help neighborhoods thrive.

The Wild Dandelion: Rooted in Silverton

The Wild Dandelion is a family-owned boutique in downtown Silverton led by owner Sandi Purdy. It offers handpicked gifts, accessories and home décor items that reflect the town’s charm. Purchased by the Purdy family from the original family owners in 2024, the shop continues a shared and loving dream of creativity, kindness and connection.

The Wild Dandelion and Legacy Silverton Medical Center are two pillars of the Silverton community, with each strengthening local health and well-being in different ways. Being a community-based hospital means building relationships and working with local businesses that make Silverton feel like home.
