| Farm location:
We are located in the upper Skagit valley just off
of Highway 20. We have 34 beautiful acres,
divided by Jones Creek, a small creek that flows into
the Skagit River. Placed snugly up against the
Cascades, the microclimate helps
keep our area warmer, in the summer, colder in the
winter, than the lower main part of the valley
and produces some of the best quality
fruit and vegetables in the valley!
Bring a lunch and enjoy the view from our picnic table.
Private tours as well as school field trips are welcome.
U-Pick is our specialty!
August - November
Bring the family and browse
the orchard. Taste your way
through time, cultures and
countries to experience apples
you never even knew existed!
You can also u-pick pears,
asian pears, plums, pumpkins
and winter squash.

Farmers Markets
Farmers markets are the link to our customers. The majority of our income comes from
these markets. With the exception of Redmond all of these markets are members of the
Washington State Farmers Market Association. You should make sure that whatever market
you shop at, it is a member of the WSFMA. The benefits of the WSFMA are many but most
importantly it insures that the market is a legitimate farmers market and not just a craft
show or a place where re-sellers and brokers import goods from who knows where and then
misrepresent themselves as farmers and unfairly compete with honest local farmers.
Markets:
These are our regular markets we
attend each year however the dates
of attendance can vary greatly.
