Pears, 2024!!!
Our Hood River family orchards are picked in the morning, then each day, fruit is driven down in boxes for selling at our stand or meeting for pre-sales on the corner of Hwy 212 and 232nd in Damascus. People can preorder fruit from our website. Please check our website for the days/times we are open at the stand on the corner of Hwy 212 and 232nd in Damascus as we are not always there.
For Pears, we will be meeting one day,
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14TH, 2024.
Once you order, I will have you confirm that you can meet at a specific, designated time.
It was a great cherry and peach season this year! Thank you to everyone for your loyalty, communication and friendly faces! We always say how we have the nicest people who come to get fruit from us!
Bartlett Pears: We are starting to contact people for pick up dates and times in the order that we received your orders. Please watch your email and maybe even check your Spam/Junk in case. I will continue to update the website and contact people about order/pick-up days. Ordering for these varieties is still open now. Thank you for your patience as we have been waiting for these to ripen!
Future Dates and varieties will be updated as soon as we get word from Hood River.
Once you place your order, we will get back to you with a specific day once we know which day we will be picking. Please continue to check your email daily after placing an order so you know when your pickup day will be. Also check your Spam/Junk folders because sometimes it goes there.
If we do not hear back from you and have you confirm that you will be there to pick up your fruit, we will contact the next people on our list as we first come, first served since we have limited fruit.
For pricing information, please visit the "Shop" page (see above).
I will update this website as we get closer to picking each fruit. We will be setting up the stand to sell cherries on Hwy 212 and 232nd in Damascus for purchasing with or without pre-ordering.

The price is for an 18-22 lb field-picked box of Vans Cherries. Vans are a red, sweet cherry. They are pretty firm (not crunchy) and an average-sized cherry, about an inch in diameter. They have multiple purposes: freezing, canning, eating fresh, making jam/jelly, cooking with, etc.
Once you pick up your cherries, please immediately put your cherries in a cool, shady place to preserve their freshness. They can be refrigerated so they last longer.
