The setting is so quaint with the farm stand right next to the orchard. Huge crates of ripe and almost ripe apples and pears. I bought several of 3 varieties of apples and a few pears and it came to $2.25. Truly! At a different fruit stand, one apple or pear was $1.50. They take credit cards but I always bring cash which I know they appreciate. Natalie is one of the owners and she is delightful. Located a few minutes off OR-35, definitely visit while out doing the Fruit Loop or wine and cider tasting. Plenty of parking in their lot.

Beautiful flowers - cosmos, bluebells, California poppies and more - surround you as you relax into the sunny fall day. The gift shop has dried flowers hanging from the ceiling, home decor items, gifts, and other things that make it a charming little stop on the Hood River Fruit Loop. The young woman at the register was friendly and helpful. [Pear Bloom has a new location (as of a couple of years ago) and it didn't show up in Yelp. I contacted the Yelp team with an update and it is now correctly shown. I wondered why there hadn't been any reviews since 2023!]

The prices were very fair, especially considering the high quality of everything. We tried a few different things, but the brisket breakfast sandwich was absolutely next-level--tender, flavorful, and just the right amount of indulgent. We're still thinking about it! Everyone we interacted with was incredibly friendly and kind--several vendors even offered water for our puppy, which was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel even more at home. If you're in Hood River on a market day, don't miss this! Great food, great people, and an awesome way to support local.

We stopped in and immediately were greeted by a friendly teenager who offered us slices from their freshly picked peaches. Sublime. There were a lot of peaches and cherries to choose as well as soap, homemade crafts, used books (all sales are donated to the local animal shelter - bonus!), honey sticks, honey in the bear, clothes and lots of other treasures. One of the owners, Lisa, was there and we engaged in a lively conversation. It was a great time. And I gladly spent at Cody Orchards because I believe supporting local businesses is what makes Oregon great. Sure, you can go to Fred Meyer and buy a peach but you have no idea if it came from Mexico, California or Ecuador. Buy directly from a local orchard or farm and you KNOW it's locally grown. No brainer. Visit them this summer and enjoy knowing your dollars feed local economy while you feed your body healthy and sustainable fruit. You'll be glad you did.

I'm not making that mistake again! Dickey's is so worth the stop! Inside is so large and spacious. Lots of bins of fresh produce based on what's in season.

Plus all your produce staples like onions, potatoes, various salad greens, broccoli, spinach, shallots, lemons, limes, green onions, sweet peppers, hot peppers and more. Many of their their products are jarred for sale. They have several types of jams from local farms. Get the red-sour cherry and the marionberry! Oh, and the fig jam, so good with prosciutto on pizza or a crostini. They have lots of Dickey's pickled veggies, too: beans, garlic, asparagus, carrots, giardena. And so many salsas with various fruit. Don't forget to pick up a jar of local. honey - they have all sizes and the prices can't be beat. Very nice selection of local wines, too! Some of their other customers told me to buy a frozen fruit pie, raving about how they taste homemade. I was tempted, but I wasn't heading straight home so I'll make a special trip for that when I'm entertaining or invited to dinner. They were out of fresh eggs, but I'm glad to know they carry them for when my egg dealer is out. Yes, that's what I call her! LOL. Once you start cooking with fresh eggs, there is no going back. They also have lots of pet and farm animal supplies, perennials and house plants. Plenty of parking out front, make Dickey's a stop anytime you are passing through Bingen on Hwy 14.

This is a third generation farm - their grandparents immigrated from Japan in the early 1900s. It's almost 300 acres and they've got apples, pears, peaches, cherries, berries, and probably more. The farmstand is open July through November. They've got a pick your own/U-pick options. They specialize in growing over 150 different varieties of apples, pears, cherries, and stone fruit. Their website is pretty up-to-date on which fruit are available at any given time. I really enjoyed stopping into the marketplace for a wide selection of pre-picked fruits, some of which had samples available. They were priced by weight and I was very pleased with the cost in the end ($12 for so many apples!).

The woman answering the phone, Jean, doesn't even live in Oregon, couldn't answer half of my questions without making other calls, and then never called me back. Also, the info she gave contradicted the website's info. So, now I have no idea if she is wrong or the website is and there's no way to confirm without driving 2 hours all the way up there and seeing for myself because she's the only one answering the phone. Between this and hearing how drastically they have increased their prices recently, there is absolutely no reason to drive all the way out there. Lots of good orchards closer in that actually answer their phone FROM THEIR LOCATION and will tell you exactly what is available and when. Skip this place if you have self-respect and a life.
