The Best Portland-Area U-Pick Farms for Apples and Other Fruit | Eater Portland
"Theresa Draper and her three daughters run the farm her parents founded in 1962, where customers gather to pick strawberries, cherries, blueberries, apricots, peaches, nectarines, apples, pears, and plums from June through October. Visitors enjoy panoramic views of Mt. Hood while visiting with the petting zoo and picnic area, before heading to the farm store stocked with local preserves, Draper Girls cider, freezer packs of grass-fed sheep, goats, and hogs, fresh fruit, antiques, and curios. Currently, visitors can pick a variety of apples and peaches from the trees; be sure to grab a bottle of hard cider on the way out. As of late September, Honey Crisp, Gala, and Golden Supreme apples are available for U-pick, as well as Anjou pears and dahlias." - Rachel Pinsky
