I wish all wineries were like this. I thoroughly enjoyed shopping through all the local artists…read moreitems that they had inside of this winery. I also wish they sold it online through their website which sadly they do not I checked, ha ha It is a small smaller winery compared to the other ones we went to in the area, but very cozy and intimate love the outside view as well as the outside heating area as well and the little Nursery that they have on site I wish I have a winery like this back in my hometown. It was just absolutely breathtaking and offered so much.

I wish I can say I checked the shop, the olive oil section and the lavender festival. We had an…read moreexcellent time having a glass of wine and conversation. The staff were extremely attentive and helpful. I'll be back for more.

Worked with team at The Worm farm to bring my soil's nutrient values up for a yard with a diverse…read morebunch of plants. I had spoken with a lot of other places that sold compost, but none really knew much about what they were selling. Then I found The Worm Farm - these guys know their stuff and where very helpful with specific advice for my yard. If you want to put down some dirt that comes from who knows where is made up of who knows what, there's a lot of places you can call. If you want to put down some compost, with the goal of actually improving your soil in your yard/farm/garden, this is the place - and there really is no second place. Thank you Igor and Jessalyn - I'll be back next season!

My first time to the Worm Farm, and it started with a very helpful phone call. I was given advice…read moreon the type of soil mix for my specific need and some recommendations that will hopefully help me yield a better crop this year. When I came out, they were very friendly and got me loaded right away. They even brought out a shovel and scooped a few shovel loads of soil into my trailer that fell to the side when they dumped. The guy helping me said "you always get what you pay for here."

First of all, their flowers are absolutely gorgeous and locally grown. TO the review saying they…read moreare selling wildflowers at premium florist prices, I would welcome them to try and cultivate a garden of diverse, colorful, locally grown florals and see how that turns out. Second of all, they are not only amazing florists, but their customer service is wonderful. They have been super flexible and adapting to my own needs in a subscription (living out of town but really loving their unique look and gorgeous arrangements) and also I've heard do really great things for their community. I am a huge fan of this company and drive 45 minutes to get their flowers.

If you want a mature tree to arrive, planted, and instantly growing on your property, this is the…read moreplace to order it. They don't just sell you a tree, they help you select the one most likely to thrive in your geographic environment. (We initially requested Bowmer maples, Dan suggested Armstrong maples as being more consistent, better suited to central Oregon, and more spire-like.) The plant crew is super efficient and instructions for getting the trees established are easy. Good company -

We had taken out a number of trees in our yard and wanted a large tree that can be a focus for the…read morefront of the house. It was wonderful to be able to call Big Trees and set a time to see their trees. Daniel took us around and also helped us as we considered several types of trees. We determined that a Somerset Red Maple would be large enough and that it would be relatively easy on yard maintenance. The tour helped us decide that we really needed a tall (30' feet) to enjoy in the next few years. Big Trees was excellent at setting up a date and delivering the tree. It was amazing just to watch the equipment as they dug the hole and planted the tree (see pictures). Now we just need to follow their directions. Felix and the staff planting the tree were easy to work with. They helpled take down and reinstall part of our fence and they cleaned upt he site very well.

I have been in love with the name of this place since I first drove by it years ago on the back…read moreroads around Scholls and Newberg. This year I made it a point on the first decent driving day to take the long ride up the oiled country road to see what I would find at trails end. In this case, what I did find was a cool home surrounded by a lovely glade of trees. Serene. No one but us and the little birdies. My husband and I listened hard for the whispering, but there was not enough wind that day, I suppose. As for the layout, there is a small outdoor building with shiny baubles for the garden (the little building is super cool) and a wandering path with small signs marking the type of tree/plant you are appreciating. It isn't much to it, though I wonder if they do weddings? We certainly enjoyed our 10 minute break and near the end of our time we were gently greeted by the nice owner lady that led us into an interior art space/store where she creates some lovely ceramics. I was feeling touristy, so I ended up buying a really cool set of handmade coasters (A bit over $20) that I adore. This is more just a thing to do along the way to doing other things, as it doesn't occupy a whole lot of time. As far as how this place is for pre-adults, I cannot say, though I for one was incredibly happy it was just us grown ups. NOTE: This drive requires going a good ways on unpaved roads. If that isn't your cup of tea, please be advised.
