Draper Girls Country Farm

We loved visiting this farm but there are so many to see how long the fruit loop. Things were very expensive in the store but I think everything is overpriced in this area. They have beautiful gardens with views of the mountain and a few picnic tables outside that you can buy food from them and eat outside. They had a couple of goats that you can feed and a really pretty flower garden.

Hahahahahahahaha hahahahaha not the usual way to start a review but that probably explains the joys this place lends you with a whole bunch of ciders to taste and farm animals to keep your kids busy and s.kovelu well kept garden with multiple picture options for you to choose. The store is well stocked with the most unnecessary treats that you still want to grab and fill your shopping cart with

Such a cute and beautiful place. We were driving past and did a U-turn just from seeing the outside. Walking inside blew us away. The smells are incredible and the local home-grown offerings are amazing. The cider is delicious!! We did a tasing and liked every single one. Special shout-out to Ali for all the help and general chat while we were there. She knew a lot of information on all the products and was very fun and pleasant to visit with. If you are passing by this place is a must, any time of year. And don’t forget to say hi to Ms. Kitty!!

As a kid I loved this place. The swing was so fun, and the prices were fair enough for me and all of my siblings to grab a bunch of honey sticks and a big jug of apple cider. The prices now are significantly higher and it makes me miss what Draper Girls was like then. You can’t even get back to the swing without a purchase, and as someone who always ends up getting something, it almost makes me want to start getting my cider somewhere else out of principle. I can’t even get any honey sticks there anymore since they’re a dollar each, which is insanity compared to anywhere else that typically sells them for a quarter. This is just an example of the types of prices they’ve got now. Nothing there seems even a bit worth the price other than the cider. I mostly just stop there to take some pictures and head out. It’s still beautiful there, and the quality of their products are still good, it just saddens me I can no longer afford them.

Was here on May 7th 2025 during my vacation and after leaving Mt Hood I ran into this amazing place! Friendly staff. Great cider and lots of other goods in the store. Don’t miss this place! The mixed berry cider was the best!

I really wanted to love this place. The swing was a nice touch, but the view of the mountain from it didn’t look like the photo on the website, which was disappointing. The store itself is lovely inside and out, but overall, the experience didn’t match what was advertised. There was no option to pick fruit or flowers, even though the website made it seem like that was part of the visit. Prices were very high, and there were signs everywhere, at least four reminding us that goat food is non-refundable. It gave off a bit of a controlling vibe, which took away from the relaxed, farm-style experience we were hoping for. Also, garbage cans were hard to find (we only saw two), and one even had a handwritten sign saying "not for personal trash." That pretty much summed up the feeling - pretty place, but not particularly welcoming.

Draper Girls Country Farm – A Disappointing Stop on the Fruit Loop I always make a point to support women-owned businesses, which made our experience at Draper Girls Farm all the more disappointing. From the moment we walked in, we felt unwelcome. The store is filled with unfriendly signs—“No touching,” “No tasting,” “Only paying guests beyond this point”—which created a tense and uninviting atmosphere. At the cherry-picking area, we were shocked to learn that the minimum purchase required was a full bucket costing $56. In contrast, other nearby farms, like The Gorge White House, allow guests to pick as much or as little as they like, with cherries priced at a reasonable $6 per pound. Lavender bunches were double the price of what we’d just seen at Hope Ranch Lavender, and overall, prices throughout the farm were significantly higher than any other stop on the Fruit Loop. To top it off, the staff’s demeanor was noticeably unfriendly. My family and I left quickly, feeling more like unwelcome tourists than valued guests. The experience lacked charm, atmosphere, and hospitality—and felt more like a tourist trap than a family farm. Sadly, we wouldn’t recommend this stop. There are so many warm, welcoming farms in the area that offer better experiences, friendlier service, and fairer prices.

Most variety of apples I found on the Fruit Loop. Really good view of Mt. Hood as well.

Draper Girls' is one of my favorite stops on the Fruit Loop. The store is great - a lot of seasonal fruits, honey, and country kitsch items. I LOVE their canned peaches. The you-pick is fun. Consider parking on the shoulder of the road just before the driveway. It can get busy so planning your parking is my recommendation.

A good example of the sunk cost fallacy: I drove for a while and got to the apple you pick. And the prices made Whole Foods look like Gourmet Outlet. But since I drove all the way out here I spent 50$ on a small bucket of apples. I don't mind spending money. But this place shamelessly crossed into downright theft. Three times the cost of the other you pick we stopped at. Twice what full price in the grocery store. No thanks. I'll keep driving.

I love visiting this farm every year. This year I spent almost $90 in fruit such as nectarines (delicious), Reiner Cherries (fantastic) peaches (never ripened after 2 weeks and were as hard as a rock with no flavor) the plums peaches and nectarines were $5.99 lb and the cherries were $8.99 a pound. (Outrageous pricing but I figured it was fresh from their farm. ) I bought a skinny jar of sliced cucumbers that I expected to be dill but they were spicy as heck for $12 and a women's Tshirt $30. (Didn't fit because sizes run very small and you can't take them out of a plastic bag to try them on.) Unfortunately this was a very expensive lesson when shopping at The Draper Girls Farm. There is a goat pin and it's always fun to watch the goats and take pictures of them and a giant tree swing that everyone likes to have their picture on but you have to be a paying customer to go out to see these things. I guess they have to make up for the new store front somehow. So if you plan to visit this cute country farm make sure you bring your credit card because you're about to spend a lot of money. Don't be disappointed about the peaches because I warned you and if you want something to remember your trip get the hat. It's $5 more but at least you can wear it.

The French Pear Chai cider is sooo good. It is addicting. Small cup for $10. The strawberry lemon cider was not as good. A little overpriced but amazing views of Mount hood. I wish they had more comfortable seating area and maybe some music. Would be nice to sip on cider and chill out but it was kinda awkward to sit and face the event house.

Busy, overpriced, terrible fruit, super commercialized... much better places around! Really, $10 for a sunflower stalk, $9 for 3 peaches which were tasteless, and a 3.5% up charge if you wanted to use your credit/debit card. Nope....

This is a first time visiting here. Was told I could feed the goats, but need to buy goat feed. We came on a Thursday morning. A nice and quaint and rustic store. Like a home store for everything kitchen. Kitchen towels to preserves to sauces and oils. I picked up a blueberry preserves there. I was told the store was remodeled and so there is a rustic feel. The front definitely has been remodeled. It was a nice visit.

Really enjoy making the drive out here from Portland. And especially love it now that they have so many delicious ciders to choose from. And of course, we always take the time to swing and check in the goats. Excited for u-pick!! Some parking in front, more in the back. Port-a-pottys out back.

Yummy lavender pear cider which we took to go and had around the campfire last night - perfect! Also picked up some great gifts for friends and family we will be visiting (jam, candle...)

This was a nice little stop on our way to our destination. A lot of locally made items. Items were ranging from $15-$30. My friends left buying a cider and bbq sauce.

Charming fruit stand in the shadow of Mt Hood has a dizzying variety of local jams and jellies, brown right here!! Draper Girls has been a family business since 1962, they are into their third generation of this family business. Their farm store is chock full of fruits in season and jams and jellies during the off season. They also have a large variety of fresh ciders in season, and frozen for out of season. There is something for everyone at Draper Girls-- be sure and say hello to 21 year old barn cat Miss Kitty. She is a sweetie 5 delicious road stop stars!! Eat here now!

Cute farm stand with a variety of fresh fruits, jams, honey, ciders (hard* & regular), canned fruit (their canned peaches are really good & their apple butter is mighty tasty, too, and other local food specialties. They have so many kinds of jams, including sugar-free ones, it was really hard to decide which ones to purchase. They also have some gifts, decor, candy, etc. It's a popular place, so expect it to be crowded during peak times. They have some lovely views outside, too! *See my separate review of their hard cider business listing (located in the same place, they just have a separate business listing on Yelp for it).

Chose to visit Draper Girls while exploring the Hood River Fruit Loop as it was a destination recommended by a number of people online. When we arrived, we drove up to a sizeable market-like building that was loaded up with fresh produce and cider. There are a few parking spots to the front side of the building with a larger parking area in the back, further down the gravel road. I believe they are known for the cider and hard cider as there were a number of promotion signs highlighting it. Once inside the farm, you can find a small tap area that offers hard cider, which can be ordered as a glass or flight. They even give you samples! After sampling a couple flavors, we opted for a lavender-esque hard cider which was actually quite delicious. Additionally, we took home an pear apple cider which literally tasted like pure fruit in a bottle (it was delicious but I actually recommend diluting it slightly with a little ice). To the left of the farm is a cute little garden. To enter, you must make a purchase at the farm. Inside the garden is an nice swing that lines up perfectly with the mountains. The farm also offers u-pick and cherries were on the menu. However, when we arrived, we found out that we weren't able to do the u-pick a it's only available select weeks. Be sure to check online for available u-pick days! The cherries looked phenomenal though.

5-yr-old granddaughter talked about picking an apple from an orchard on our 2-hour drive to Hood River. We were told the minimum was a $58 crate of apples. After asking if she could pick just 1 and pay for it, we were told the owner was very strict on the rules. He suggested we go elsewhere. And we will! Along with our money! Does the almighty dollar always have to be the bottom line? Disgusted.

Omg, this place was freezing! Bring all your cold-weather garb inside with you! I get it, apples need to be cold. But I was hoping to grab some cider and enjoy somewhere warm; I feel like they could have a heated inside area for hanging out. I just did a quick lap around the store and was so cold I just left.

We headed out early morning for a drive on the Fruit Loop. We bypassed many other farms and came upon Draper Girls Country Farm. It looked inviting with the adorable country store, beautiful garden with a swing and the cat sitting in the window. I was very excited to explore the grounds and buy fruit and what not... I looked around a bit and then went to the small counter at the middle of the store. A very tall man was standing there and I said that we hadn't been there before and wanted to pick cherries. He shut my interest down by saying we only sell large buckets and you could buy from our fruit stand. I thought to myself but I would have preferred the "experience" than having to buy from the fruit stand. I then asked if I could stroll the garden and again he came back with a quick and unfriendly remark "you'll need to buy something before you go to the garden". Okay! That came across very harsh! My husband and I got a glass of cider and heading outside. It was a beautiful atmosphere and I am glad we purchased the cider so we could explore. I came back in and purchased some plums ( they weren't good, very sour even though they were ripe) and soap. We asked the tall man if he could suggest a place to eat along the route or other unique farms to visit. He had no knowledge of the surrounding farms and couldn't provide a solid answer. We left off put and a burden.

Beautiful garden, good Mountain Views, charming expensive store, and rude employees. We bought a bag of goat feed for 5 dollars. There was a sign saying no refunds for goat feed (husband saw it, I missed it). That was a warning sign. Goats didn't feel hungry and didn't come to the fence to be fed. When we walked back into the store to give back the full bag of feed the employees explained there is no refund. One of them was rude and snarky. Draper farm has lost our business permanently by how they conduct themselves.

This was my third visit to Draper Girls and it was just ok, I really really wanted to like it more than I did and have approached it with this hope every time. It is a beautiful space/farm stand that specializes in interesting ciders. The last time I was there, there was also a pop-up clothing and shoe store on the grounds, which was cool. They also sell fresh fruit from their orchard. Somehow though, this never seems to be enough. They don't sell food of any kind, and no other beverages other than cider. The last time I was there there were also bees ALL over the place. Their prices are also crazy high. I bought three peaches for $8.

The fruit, the cider, the atmosphere! But most of all the people. We love their cider and visit at the hood river cider fest every year but get up to the store. It's beautiful. The hard cider and regular is amazing. We got apples today that are pink inside and are so good.

Decided to come back here after many years and had a pleasant experience. They've added a new section to their building that helps with spaciousness. Prices are still quite high, but we enjoyed a bag of fresh cherries that were really good. We also had a great time hanging out in the pretty shaded garden and the kids had a blast on the big swing. We also visited the goats. We'd come back again.

Definitely my least favorite stop along the Hood River Fruit Loop. We did arrive 20 mins before opening (9:40am), but their sign out front said 'open' so we thought it would be okay. The woman inside was stocking the fruit, along with another younger girl. The girl was pretty friendly, but the older woman seemed pretty irritated. I wasn't sure if we should leave or not. She finally said it was okay to walk around and take a look. We did end up buying some fruit (peaches, plums, nectarines and Rainier cherries. We also bought some cider. The Rainier cherries were $7.99/lb...pretty spendy compared to the rest of the fruit stand stops along the Fruit Loop...we found out later. The cider was delicious! Not sure we'll stop here next time or not. The staff wasn't very welcoming. And the pricing is on the high end.

The remodel looks great!! If it's not busy take a couple pics on the oversized tree swing. Go feed the goats or walk to check out the flowers. Cider tasting and a variety of road snacks a plenty for the rest of the drive along the fruit loop. They even have a store cat sleeping on the bench inside.

Some of the best cider I've had in the PNW. Definitely should be on your list if you are into sweeter ciders. They were all super nice and sweet and went out of their way to show us a ton of cool ciders. Definitely rustic and a working farm, but this is 100% a must stop for anyone who is into craft small batch ciders. They also have the most adorable goats and fresh fruits available. Their garden area is super pretty with a giant swing with an awesome mountain view.

The view of Mt. Hood from their side garden is breathtaking! A Monet image of flowers in the foreground with Mt. Hood standing proud against a bright blue sky - this alone is worth the stop! In the store, they sell a variety of fruit in season plus jams, syrups, honey,and antiques. It's very quaint. They also sell hard cider, which I love. On my recent trip I thought I was ordering a "flight" but it's actually a tasting of six 1-2 ounce cups that you drink while standing with the cider maker or service rep explaining each. I wish they had actual flights that you could take to the garden and savor and enjoy. The view is so beautiful and would be made even better if you could enjoy a beverage. You can purchase the cider by the growler, of which there are many sizes, and also by the glass which I will do next time. They offer u-pick Blueberries, apples and other fruits so a great family activity. Plus a huge swing amongst the trees in the garden and baby goats for kids and people of all ages to enjoy. Prices were a bit on the high side but I did purchase quite a bit to support the local farmers during these tough COVID-19 days.

Rudest most non-welcoming overall experience I have experienced in a long time! Nobody to ask a question. No friendly faces. Posted rules everywhere. Upon finally seeing someone in the very back who belonged here I said "excuse me" with a smile... I was pointed at with a finger up in the air and told, "Could you wait a minute!" As he was talking to the only other person around that worked there... (I walked away) Walked by a young girl who was serving cider (tried to wait and catch her eye to ask her a question... ignored 110%. We left without a "hello, goodbye, thanks for coming" but the memory of complete rudeness in a way I haven't experienced in years. Owners Response Says It All: Rude people are the impatient ones who say "excuse me" when they interrupt, or write reviews including only the facts that suit their narrative. The other "employee" was the owner receiving news that you are not privy to but was important enough not to stop because you wanted to be excused. Most adults can recognize this.

In 2021, my wife and I brought our infant daughter here to do some apple picking and give her some fresh apple as her first solid food. You know, gumming it, not actually eating, but the first flavor other than milk. At the time, we got a big bucket and paid $40-$45 to fill it with apples and take some photos in the orchard, so there is a bit of a sentimental feeling to this place. Fast forward to 2022. When we got there, the u-pick stand outside was vacant. We inquired inside to see if we could pick and how much; it was a little late in the season but sentimental, so even if we didn't end up with a full bucket it would be ok. The cashier said "We're doing it a little different this year and I haven't been here in a couple weeks..." so asked another woman to come help us. She said there was only one size bucket this year and it would be $65 and no we couldn't check to see if it was worth it (no idea what size bucket she was offering but only once price). Instead we bought a few individual, delicious apples and a pear and went on our way, cursing inflation. When we flipped through the parking circle to get out, we passed a woman and her boyfriend/husband with a small bucket. I asked her how much and she said "$40 for this one and there's a bigger one for $60." Not sure what exactly prompted them to give us different prices and info, but I can guess. Would be nice if I didn't have to though.

We stopped here as it is part of the Fruit loop! We loved the cat that we first saw upon our arrival there. They had a decent variety of apples but didn't buy very many because without being able to taste them I didn't know what to buy! They had a lot of a variety of jams and honey, etc... the people in there were very friendly too. It was a nice place to stop. They even came out to find me when the honey I night didn't make it into the bag. Nice folks!

If you're visiting Portland, a drive along the infamous Fruit Loop off of the main HWY 84, along HWY 35 (the actual Fruit Loop) is a must! Draper Girls' Country Farm is just right off of 35! With so many orchards and winery along the Fruit Loop to choose from, we opted for Draper Girls' Country Farm hoping to pick some strawberries. We were not disappointed. The sign is big and easily spotted right from the road, which was one of the main reason we stopped here. They have plenty of fruits and ciders to choose from inside the store. Depends on the season, you can come here to pick your own strawberries, cherries, different types of apple, cherries, etc... We came in June which I guess was strawberry season. If I remember correctly, the minimum is 6 pints for strawberry picking, which cost us around $20, maybe a bit less. It was well worth it for very juicy, sweet, and fresh of the vine strawberries which we took a few back to TX with us a couple days after and they were still good. The lady who was our cashier was very nice, informing us not to eat the strawberries without washing them first from the water in front of the store (don't use the one in the back by the portable toilet, the water is not potable) If we are in Portland again, we will definitely come back here to some apple picking, or cherry, or whatever is in season at the time.

Way to expensive!! I believe if I'm not wrong $56 for a small bucket of u pick cherries. Plus rude staff! And no cash, card only. Good thing I left and ended up picking cherries somewhere else.

Only visited to to cut our own dahlias and for some cider. Space is a little small but everyone was respectful to socially distance. Didn't have any issues finding a table and chair to enjoy our hot cider and cider donuts. My husband did the cider tasting and the gentleman was very nice and knowledgeable. We enjoyed listening to him describe the ciders. My husband bought a growler of the pear cider. Said it was the best he's ever tried.

Draper Girl's is a pleasant stop for an apple expedition. They've got U-Pick as well as farm stand shopping options. Indoors, there's the expected rustic display of jams, and a hard cider tasting area. As we visited in October, they had a nice selection of pumpkins scattered around as well. Prices are on the steep side, but you're really paying for the experience as well. They've got a lovely grove of fir trees with a swing, and terrific views of Mt Hood. Continuing around the garden area, they've got adorable goats and llamas. All in all, this is a nice rural spot for you and all your city dwelling friends to visit.

Their store is cute, full of antiques and apples. But selection is limited. They do have some hard cider occasionally. They organize u-pick apples. They keep goats, your kids can feed and let them. Lots of cute photo ops, with haybales, a tractor, a big swing.

I was super excited to come out but I did not feel welcomed at all by the staff. they have great products and great produce but could work on having better customer service. I felt uncomfortable being in their cute yard the whole time and felt like I could not enjoy my time there. unfortunate :/

Few things are as good as they used to be, and sadly, I would put Draper Girls Farm (DGF) in that category. Have been coming here for years, cute farm and shop dynamic, pretty setting off Hwy 35, that's the positives. What's shocking is how extraordinarily expensive a simple apple (that you pick) and if you choose, a pumpkin have become as examples. A group of us were there a few days ago and pumpkins are about $1.00 a pound, New Seasons markets in the Portland area are charging .37 a pound. But we're here for the apples and cherries, right? There are a number of "bucket" options to choose from, a bucket slightly smaller than the orange Home Depot bucket we're mostly familiar with will set you back $50! I watched a nice family of 4 with two super excited little kids approach the bucket stand. By the Dad's reaction, we could tell he was shocked, surprised, and taken aback by the cost of the picking apple experience in this humble family outing.. My guess is you can probably get 20 or so apples to the top of the bucket. Why is this , inflationary costs? Maybe, but there was a sense in previous years that your effort in picking apples yielded a better value as you were paying by the pound, not anymore. Forewarned is forearmed, DGF will provide you with a simulated experience of bucolic country life indeed, but be prepared to pay the price for the privilege!

Like most of the other reviews say, probably not a top stop on the Hood River Fruit Loop. (I'd only recommend coming here to see the beautiful garden and swing.)The last time I came here was three or four years ago and I had fonder memories from that visit. The fruit selection was subpar and a lot of the options seemed really overpriced for a farm store. I guess they are pretty well-known for their ciders, and offered sample flights. ($5 for 8 little one ounce sample cups) What mostly killed it for me was the service. The employees didn't seem very happy or welcoming, and we left feeling a little disappointing. I think in the future I'd just come back to sit in the garden and avoid the actual store entirely.

This place is a GEM! The people are great. Richard was so nice to show us Flash and Henry (adorable goats!) the cider is amazing- best I've had! And the owner knows her cider- was very gracious with her time and let us try things that were not in the front. Everyone we met here was super nice. If you're in Hood River or just passing by- you should definitely stop here. Not sure why there were "1" rating here. If you want people to be nice to you- first check yourself! People here are amazing.

My boyfriend tried the Pear Cider here, and got serious DIARRHEA ( we ate the exactly the same thing that day except for the pear cider, and I was fine) So BE AWARE m, do yourself a favor and don't get the cider here. Other than that, cute place to walk around

The farm was great . The apple cider testing was great . You get to sample 6 different flavors of apple cider for $5. I've decided to buy 2 flavors but it was a hard decision. Now I regret not buying more. The selection of fruits and vegetables was great and they also sell antiques in the back of the store and vinaigrettes and jellies. Great farm I would love to go back.

Awesome roadside fruit stand and market. I picked up some Marionberry and Huckleberry preserves that looked delicious. Sampled a cosmic crisp apple, couldn't stop eating it. Sweet spot!

$55 minimum for you-pick cherries. Way too much and there's plenty of other choices out there. Nice people and cute goats but bad business model.

We stopped here coming down the hill from a Mt. Hood Forest Hike. It is right off the high way, but not too big so could be hard to miss. We knew it was a great spot when there was a bit of a traffic jam in the parking lot. We took a spot and headed into the little store. First of all there is so much more than we thought! Out front is fresh fruit you can buy by the each (peaches and apricots etc -- we had all of them, so delicious). The there is a little cider stand where they make fresh hard cider. You can taste it in little cups, but have to buy it by the (adorable) growler. Only issue with this is that we were about an hour from home, so we sipped a bit while we picked fruit and hung out, but had to bundle up the rest to take home and try to keep it cold. Inside the store they have antiques all around that you can buy, while we didn't buy any it was really fun to look at. Lots of preserves and fresh corn, canned fruit, etc. They have tons of different varieties for the preserves. I bought 3 different ones, ate one the rest of the weekend on top of ice cream, and shipped the rest back to San Diego. We also bought fresh corn in the husk and BBQ'd it later that night. It was really delicious, and the one cob left over we cut off the kernels for a cold summer salad. The Strawberry Rhubarb fruit only preserves were basically the inside of a pie and delicious with vanilla ice cream! Not too sweet, and had big chunks of fruit in it. They also have two refrigerators that you can get meat and cheese out of. It seemed like they had a variety, but we did not look too much. Outside they have a wonderful sitting area and garden. Shaded by lots of trees, there is a large swing that was so peaceful to swing on. Additionally they have tables and chairs where you can eat some lunch or just relax (like we did) and view beautiful Mt. Hood in the background. They have two pens of goats you can feed (food is $3 in the store) or just walk by and check out the little guys. They also have U-Pick areas (cherries were in season) but the options were all too large for what we needed/wanted, but it seemed like it was all very reasonable. The staff was lovely and knowledgable and I will definitely be back on my next trip to Mt. Hood!

By far the worst customer service at any stop we made on the fruit loop, and some of the worst I've had ever. Walked around for 10 minutes before we could find someone to assist us. Getting someone to help us sample cider felt strained at best. Checking IDs felt like an interrogation. We then had to share sample cups, since she didn't offer individual samples to each of us. We weren't told which cider was which, and were made to feel stupid for any questions asked. We didn't realize the 'must buy' rule until after sampling, and it was very awkward when we truly weren't interested in buying, especially after the extremely uncomfortable sampling experience. Why even offer samples if you require purchase of a $15 growler? It doesn't make any sense to me. It truly felt like they didn't want our business, and believe me with so many other incredible options, we won't ever be back.

Great little family farm, with awesome cider and and amazing view of Mt. Hood. I suggest taking a walk through their farm. It's beautiful back there.

We were driving the E Columbia River Historic Highway and Stephen wanted to find Mount Hood. We keyed in coordinates in the GPS and headed this way, not knowing we were touring the "Fruit Loop". After passing signs after signs of "Fruit" stands, I started to get hungry and thirsty. It was close to 4:00 and the last time we ate was back at Cascade Locks around 12:00. I spied a car pull into this lot, so I made a quick right turn into the same lot. What a quaint lot! There were signs posted everywhere.. signs of fruit for sale, signs that you can pick your own fruit, a sign they sell cheese (and lots of it), and even a sign they have a farm animals. Stephen's mom loves cherries, and we were visiting at the right time. They had baskets of them, and varieties I've never heard of. The lady behind the cashier hollered we were welcome to try one, and I did. The one I tried was so sweet! They were mix and match, so we grabbed a handful of the Rainiers and Skeena at $5.49 a pound. As I write this, I realized that was pretty pricy! However, after we paid for them, we found a bench around the corner and started eating them. We had a great view of Mount Hood and some excellent cherries. The fruit hit the spot. It gave me the energy I needed to continue our quest to find Mount Hood, and also quenched my thirst that I had. The lady behind the counter was polite, but not chatty. As I walked to the car, I spied the farm animals, which was a pen full of goats and baby goats. As we left, more people were turning into her driveway. You can find them on Facebook as well.

Yum! Loved our Honeycrisp picking this morning. Their operation is well run, they are enforcing masking and distancing and the apples are delicious. Thank you!!

Super overpriced, snobby vibes. We usually go fruit picking in Sauvie's, but decided to check this place out as we were hoping to go cherry picking. As a native Portlander, I have fond memories of cherry picking in the fruit loop with my family growing up and was looking forward to the same experience w my fiancé. They have a $45 minimum for cherry picking, or you could pick 20lbs for $5/lb ($100) which is kind of ridiculous. We left with some peaches they had at the stand for 3.99/lb so we left with 3 peaches for $8. Not worth your time.

The cutest place in Hood River. You've got baby goats that you can pet and feed, picnic tables in front of a beautiful field, apple and pear picking, lots and lots of cider and an adorable and always crowded storefront. The store doesn't just sell apples or cider; you can a nice variety of jams, preserves, fruit, vegetables and other food items available for sale. It's the perfect fall family or friend outing!

I stopped by on my way into Washington. The fruit selection was great and the pomegranate cider I had was delicious. On top of it all, the view of the mountain was amazing. What a great little backyard! The staff was friendly but I did notice the plethora of passive aggressive notes written everywhere. Looks like a bunch of folks got turned off from that. Didn't bug me too much but I was there in the middle of the day on a weekday. (From what I remember) Overall, great little stand. I'd be back.

The Fruit Loop feels a million miles away from Portland, so beautiful! This farm had a colorful garden setting, cute animals and a view of Mt. Hood. Produce and cider are sold in a small structure open to the outside, so it's easy to socially distance. We felt very safe. They offer a variety of fresh cider. Loved all the options, there were a number of flavors and sizes. We tried the pear/apple combination which was a new taste for us. It's not cheap, but prices are comparable to what we spend at apple farms at home in California. We were happy to support a small business in this challenging time. The lady that sold us the cider was really nice also.

Stopped by with the family to u-pick some apples & pears. They have a minimum of 20 lbs on the u-pick, so we didn't pick. We don't need that much. We did go in the shop where they were sampling peaches, plums & pears that you could mix & match. There was a really nice man working & a super grumpy & rude woman. I watched her interact with customers & she snapped at many. I think she hates her job. Anyway, they sell u-pick dahlias for $1 a stem & they are gorgeous! There are adorable goats that you can pet for free or feed for $3. It's a really pretty farm!
