They did have already picked buckets that you could just purchase a higher price. I didn't catch the price of the veggies or flowers. I will go back to check out the pears in a few weeks.

I was here for apples, and they had a ton of options. They were very friendly and patiently explained the process. You fill buckets and then pay at the end. They have pull carts so you can move multiple buckets around. There are so many varieties of apples! There is a chart at the entrance to the orchard with the names and what purpose is best for each kind of apple (eating, baking, applesauce). They also let you sample the apples to help with the selection process. The orchards extend farther than was apparently from the parking lot. It was peaceful at the far end of some of the rows, and we found plenty of apples. It can be muddy, so boots are probably a good idea. It was a lovely fall day, with blue skies. This was a fun way to connect with the season and to become more familiar with where some of our food comes from. Highly recommended.

Hands downnnnnn my most favorite milkshake spot in Oregon!!!…read more My boyfriend is an Oregon local here and introduced me to this little shop 20 minutes away from his house. This place consists of everything locally made/grown honey, jams, fruits, vegetables, they even have frozen ice cream and meats on the go. Very cute farm vibe! We walked to the back of the store where they offer some pies, shortcakes, ice creams, sundaes, milkshakes, and hot/ice coffees. We were nicely greeted by the employees and we both ordered the strawberry milkshake. They directed us to go the back of the store where the seating area is located and someone will come out and announce our names. We waited about 5 to10 minutes and then they finally called our names. Took my first bite, my mind was blownnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!! Most milkshakes I've had in the past were always generic and when it melts it turns into watery milk. But with Aspinwall's milkshake, the consistency is soooooo creamy, soft, and smooth! Even if it melts, it turns into a milky froth! Superrrr delicious!! The next few weeks of my vacation here I kept ordering a different variety of their fresh fruit milkshakes to see which one I liked the most. I tried peach, blueberry, blackberry, strawberry blended with chocolate, and strawberry blended with blueberry. So which fresh fruit milkshake do I most recommend? STRAWBERRY BLENDED BLUBERRY MILKSHAKE!!! Separated they are delicious on their own so that's why decided to blend both together and enjoy all at the same time :) I recommend ordering this combo!!!! Least favorite fresh fruit milkshakes was the peach, it wasn't fresh and seemed they used a preserved peach from a long ago harvest. Vacation here in Oregon lasted 2 weeks so we went here at least 5-7x to get as much milkshakes as possible before we head back to my home in Hawaii. Surprisingly I never got tired of the milkshakes because I just love the fresh fruit! We will be back again!

This small shop is amazing and totally worth the drive if you're looking for something local!…read more They have a variety of local goods, from their famous jams and pies to honey and even T-shirts. There's definitely a little something for everyone. Their baked goods were amazing! I especially loved the crust on their pies. But another hidden gem has to be their toasted macaroons. They had the perfect balance of a golden, toasted exterior and a soft, gooey center. AMAZING! Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area and want to try some local treats or bring a few goodies home.

Had some of the best strawberry shortcake we've had this summer. In house cake and local strawberries with a pile of whip cream. Sat outside in the shade under a tree and listed to the band. Went inside to the market and bought some really fresh ripe peaches to eat the next day. Might be worth a trip down by itself next time.

I initially wondered if it was worth hiring them for ag consulting additionally since we are so small. I tend to think of this service as something for large commercial operations. Boy, are we glad we got the consulting part too. We've never had sheep before and this was absolutely worth it's weight in gold (or Amex.) Brian and Michelle came out to our property and identified the types of grass, appropriateness of our fencing and shelter, and recommended an amount of animals based on the lot size. They immediately followed up by email with a written list of specific supplies they recommend. Our ram and ewes were selected based on this meeting and delivered to us. We really felt like all our questions were answered and when our first sheepergency came up, they immediately responded to our anxious questions. So many people I know are trying to add some element of farming to their already busy day job lives, but don't know where to start. I highly recommend Brian and Michelle for even small properties: let them save you the expense and headache reinventing the wheel from their years of learned experience!

Today was a perfect sunny day to stop in for some fresh sugar snap peas and of course a strawberry shortcake. The peas were great. Big healthy peas. And my shortcake was amazing. I love this time of the year. My only negative about my shortcake I suppose would be I wish they had more strawberries in the sauce and maybe even topped it with some fresh cut strawberries. That would take it to the next level. I will definitely return for another go around as they offer a variety of fresh produce. Oh and I also snagged a bottle of local Bloody Mary mix. Anyways go stop by and check it out
