Happy Halloween! And also, Happy last day of the 2024 Apple Season. Today is our final open day and tomorrow we will be closed for the season.
What a season it has been! We had a record low yield for apples in the valley. But boy, did all of you help us make the most of it. Even though we are closing a month early this season, we are so grateful for the season we have had. We are truly thankful to have gotten to spend the 2024 season with you all.
Thank you for supporting our Orchard and our families. It is a joy to provide fresh produce for you all to pick and enjoy.
If you were still hoping to grab some apples today, we have Cripps Pink and Granny Smith available. You do have to go far down the rows, and might need to look up in the tree to find them. Don't feel like you can make the long walk down the rows? Just give us a call or send us a message and we will have a Beilke Box picked and ready for you to pick up.

Final Day of the Seaon is Halloween
What a season we have had! This year was a record low yield for Apples across the Willamette Valley. As a result, we are having to close early. We love being open until Thanksgiving, but this year that is just not an option. We are down to TWO varieties in the orchard.
Those two varieties still available are Cripps Pink and Granny Smith. You do have to go far down the row, and might need to look up in the tree to find them. Don't feel like you can make the long walk down the rows? Just give us a call or send us a message and we will have a Beilke Box picked and ready for you for pickup.
Our final week of The Largest Apple Contest has a winner! Abby won our final week with a Melrose apple weighing 1.1 pounds. Congratulations to Abby! You have won two free buckets of u-pick apples!
Pumpkins are still available in the Pumpkin Patch until Halloween. We have pink, white, orange, and some blue still available.
Tomatoes are about finished. We do still have some Romas available for u-pick but it will take a little bit of hunting to find them. The farther down the rows you go, the more success you will have.

Granny Smith

Pumpkins and Traffic Cones
It is getting spooky in the Apple Orchard! We are heading into Halloween week and we are ready for it. The pumpkin patch has lots of classic carving pumpkins still ready to be found, and some decorative too. Fun fact, the pink and blue decorative pumpkins also cook down perfectly for making pies and other treats.
The Apples are still doing great but we are definitely at the end of the rows for picking. We have orange traffic cones down the rows indicating where the loaded trees can be found. Trees will be empty until you get to those cones. Don't feel like you can make the long walk down the rows? Just gives us a call or send us a message and we will have a Beilke Box picked and ready for you for pickup. We are monitoring the orchard and we expect to sell out of apples sooner than usual. We love being open until Thanksgiving like we are every year, but this will not be happening. We have probably 10-14 days left of the season left and will keep you updated as we go.
Tomatoes are still doing well. Romas especially are still plentiful and easy picking. The Slicers can still be found but will definitively take more hunting to find.
Flowers are still available for u-pick until the first frost. Bouquets will also be available this weekend, Thursday-Sunday. If we have a frost in the next two nights, this will be the last weekend for Bouquets at the stand.
