Driving home from vacation, I spotted Farmer Creek's sign and pumpkin display from the road. I…read morenoticed it too late to turn in, and lamented missing such a darling roadside stand as I continued down the road. Realizing there was no real deadline to arrive home, a few minutes later I turned around, and am so glad I did! A visit in September means pumpkins, squash, mums, pansies, and other cold hardy plants will greet you at the entrance. Inside were charmingly packaged daffodil bulbs with corresponding photos. A cascading tangle of dried hops was gorgeously displayed. Prices (very reasonable) were written on a chalkboard, and there is a deposit box in which to place your funds. Alas! They only accept cash, of which I had none handy, so come prepared! It appears their offerings flow with the seasons, and while they are a little ways from my home, I never shy away from a drive along my favorite US highway, so I'll surely return before long. They would even be worth adventuring a bit out of your way. An absolutely charming little farm stand!

Draper Farms is the roadside farmstand of my dreams! Now, they are not found along a major road or…read morehighway, so it's no wonder it took me so long to discover them, but if you live in McMinnville or thereabouts, they are worth a couple minutes drive out into the "country" part of McMinnville. I have taken to stopping here first on my weekly shopping trips. I try to purchase the majority of my produce at Draper Farms, then supplement as needed at the standard grocery store. I live pretty rurally, so I generally don't make it into town for the Thursday farmer's market like I wish I could. Draper Farms is the perfect alternative that I can hit Saturday, Sunday, or any day of the week that is convenient. Offerings cycle with the seasons, but they are growing lots of great stuff here, and there is always an excellent variety of options. A few of my favorites are their strawberries, radishes, corn, leeks, collards, and herbs. No matter the time of year they will have some sort of lettuce, cabbage, spinach, or other greens. I recently grabbed some divine kiwi berries, finished in a single day, and have dreamed of them since. For autumn, they offer an array of pumpkin varieties for 30 cents a pound which is the least I've seen anywhere, and much prettier than what you can find at a grocery store. They also had fall décor, including stunning glass gem corn. There is even a separate fresh cut flower stand! They accept cash, check or Venmo (the latter is such an appreciated option, yay!). They have some bags available, though you should bring your own if you can. Prices are generally less than the grocery store, and for much higher quality produce! There is a good amount of parking. They also offer a CSA.

I purchased 1/2 flat of fresh strawberries, to serve to dinner guests this evening. As I was cleaning the berries, they looked odd, it appeared that they had some sort of core on the inside of the berry. I was not sure what it was and the berries tasted "off". I thought the core looked like it could be a maggot, but I thought I was wrong, until I looked it up and yes, indeed berries can have maggots on the inside that you can not see from the outside. I called and spoke with the manager, they said to return them with the receipt and they would refund my money. My concern was they did not really apologize and said, we don't spray. I get that and I am happy for that, but, they are responsible for their product quality control. I felt their customer service response was very poor.

On my way to finally check it out, I passed Bernards Farm, and was smitten before even entering. They have the cutest shop set up in their giant white old-fashioned barn. Fresh floral arrangements and dried wreaths line one wall. Displays of in-shell walnuts and filberts overflow, along with roasted and chocolate covered varieties of that most delicious of Oregon nuts, even brittle! You will find vegetables and an assortment of leafy greens, frozen berries, meat, granola, dry beans, honey, herbs, and other plants and flowers. They offer seasonal fruit, and I was delighted to spy glistening garnet strawberries. I thought I was getting them for a steal at $11 for three pints, until I observed the two customers in front of me carrying giant cardboard flats of berries that were getting weighed and priced around $6. I then noticed the chalkboard behind the register advertising U-pick strawberries at $1.50lb. That's a deal for grocery store berries, let alone gorgeous fresh-picked ones! I was happy to pay my $11, but you best believe I returned as soon I finished up those lovelies and picked my own. There were plenty and it only took a half hour to gather six pounds! Each time I have checked out the cashiers have been sweet as pie. They even shared which strawberry varieties I'd picked (Sweet Charlie and Albion). And since Bernards is not quite in the thick of all the other farm stands, they have never been too busy. Their prices seem a little lower as well, but regardless the quality is excellent, and worth whatever they ask. Bernard's Farm is about ten minutes from my new home, and it truly cemented the feeling that I have chosen the right spot to settle. While I hope to grow much of my own food, I will absolutely be stopping by Bernards for lots of extra goodies (especially the chocolate covered hazelnuts which I just can't stop eating!).
