The family was very kind and informative about their farm with superb customer service. We ended up bringing $130 worth of cherries, which was very worth it to my family and I.

Their orchards are on the hills and some areas are steep so know that before you go. The views from their hills are spectacular! Reminds me of the rolling hills and vineyards of Tuscany. The trees are bursting with cherries and it's so easy to fill a bucket in no time. On the day I visited recently, the dark black-purple Titans were ripe and so sweet. For $2.25 a pound, they are worth every penny! I picked 10 pounds and gifted bags to my friends. They supply buckets and I brought my own bags to dump them in. Workers are friendly. Cherries the sweetest. Views incredible. 5 stars all the way! Located 60 minutes from Portland, it's a beautiful ride. So much to do in the Gorge so spend the day there after you pick cherries. Oh, and wear a hat as the sun is strong!

Typically we pick anywhere between 20-30 lbs per person. My family loves cherries, especially the rainier cherries. The price is $2.50 a pound. When we got there, we followed the signs that took us exactly where we need to go. Towards the entrance, there are red cherries available, but if you ask the employees, they will show you where the other color cherries are. We decided to walk from the entrance to the yellow cherries. There was a sweet lady that said she will give us a ride back to the top once we were done picking the yellows in her buggie. She stick around the area and kept an eye out for when we were done. Then she drove us back to the cashiers and our car location. Overall, it was a great experience.

So many varieties! We picked the sweet, yellow Ranier, dark purple lapin and red bings. They made…read morefor a colorful bowl of cherries and tasted delicious! This orchard is huge! It spans several hills and there are two entry point locations. One on Root Oqd and one on Carroll. Check their website which will tell you which cherries are ripe and ready to pick, and at which location. So helpful! While the orchard is really huge, picking is easy because you can drive through the rows of trees and park right near where you want to pick. This makes it super convenient and easy. The fields are flat which is another thing I appreciate. Just be careful walking around as there are sprinkler heads and other things you can trip over. Yes, I'm telling you this from experience! Ouch. Mosier definitely has the best cherries!! And the best prices. At $2.00-$2.50 a pound, they are far cheaper than those on the Hood River Fruit loop. Drive one exit past Hood River (exit 69) to the town of Mosier and within minutes you are at Root Farms and several other cherry farms. The ride to Mosier is beautiful as the Columbia River widens and the basalt cliffs on the Washington side are gorgeous. Since I'm here all the time, I pick at several each season to support local.

This farm is on the honor system. Grab buckets, pick to your heart's content, weigh them, and leave the money in envelopes based on their pricing system (which is very reasonable). What a nice family outing!

Beautiful floral shop that has a wide variety of houseplants, pots, succulents, large planters,…read morecards & gifts in addition to making lovely floral arrangements and bouquets. While driving down 12th Street, the lush green plants in the window caught my attention. The next day I had to come back and check it out. The owner and those working there are so friendly in that small town way that doesn't exist in many places. Well it's on full display here! When I explained that I was trying to replace two orange bromeliads, they offered to order some for me. Bromeliads or any plant I need that is not in the store. When I mentioned that my large aloe is covered in white, scale fungus or mites, they informed me that it is lacking light . I've Googled this a dozen times and that never came up! Shopping here is as much about getting educated on how to care for your plants to as it is about finding a specific plant. The goal is for the plant to thrive long term. While perusing the shop, I noticed some planters filled with three or four indoor houseplants that would be a stunning gift or an arrangement for your own home. Especially the ones that had a pop of color from the African Violets. I may have to go back for one! All the plants were healthy and thriving. There were anthurium with waxy, shiny, red heart shaped leaves; snake plants that are so easy to maintain; lots of pathos that are super easy to grow; an assortment of orchids in multiple colors; and a plethora of succulents and air plants. The shop is small but everything is styled so nicely that they fit in a lot of inventory while still keeping it spacious so customers can easily make their way around. Loved everything about this shop! So happy to find a plant and floral shop in the heights of Hood River.

The first time I was there, it was a sunny 80 degree early fall day, and after checking out the beautiful and inviting back patio, I had to stay for a delicious hard cider.
