We sell at the following Farmers Markets, mostly starting in May with our strawberries, lettuce, snowpeas, and onions:

Beaverton Farmers Market (Southwest Hall Boulevard between 3rd and 5th streets, near the Beaverton Library and City Hall). Saturdays 8:00 to 1:30.

Call for special orders (we supply some restaurants). We deliver any time to restaurants in Yamhill County,
and we will deliver to restaurants near the farmers markets on the days we are at those markets.

We are a family farm. Our earliest Oregon ancestors came here as pioneers in the early 1850s and settled in Yamhill County. Our strategy is to produce high quality fruits and vegetables in a sustainable way, minimizing our use of fertilizers and pesticides, and delinking ourselves as far as possible from the industrial food production system. To do this successfully, we depend on marketing high-quality produce at retail prices in local farmers markets. We recommend Fast Food Nation and The Omnivore's Dilemma to our customers.

We grow:
Apples (about a dozen different varieties) (starting in July, running through February) This is our speciality.
Pears
Plums
Peaches
Figs
Table Grapes (red and white)
Strawberries
Raspberries
Blueberries
Blackberries
