We came across this second rendition of the McIlrath Fruitstand while we were riding our bikes…read morealong the Naches trail of the Greenway path. It's located in an iconic for a building with a giant sign that simply reads "Fruit" - Washington nostalgia at its best! Apparently they are renting the place from the previous owners had lucky for all of us, it gives us a chance to buy more delicious produce and local products a little bit further down on the trail! Located on the way out to Naches, this place has tons of great stuff be at for a bike ride, a barbecue or just grabbing some delicious tree grown treats for at home. The produce that is available here largely mirrors what is down the road a few miles at the main stand near Suntides golf course. When we came in, they had tons of fresh bing and rainier cherries, apricots, peppers, Blueberries and plenty of potatoes and onions. The array of colors on any of the tables is always impressive and make sure thankful to live in a place like this! In addition to fruit, they roast their own peanuts, sell Tillamook ice cream, So local honey, rustic wooden furniture as well as meats from a butcher in Selah and smoked salmon from a small town on the Westside. It all added up to more than we were expecting and gave us a lot of reasons to come back here other than just the tree fruit options. The prices are very reasonable and the gal working here was very friendly. It's the sort of place you stop on your way out and on your way back, and is a good reason to carry a bag or basket on your bike! A great stop no matter what the occasion.

I'm (embarrassingly) like Forrest Gump's best-good-friend Bubba when it comes to huckleberries…read more Instead of having shrimp on the brain and talking in a "southern robot voice" about all things shrimp; I'm the same way during the 2-4 weeks a year when huckleberries are in season. "Huckleberries are the fruit of the land. There's huckleberry smoothies, huckleberry pie, huckleberry-infused vodka, huckleberry shrimp, huckleberry tarts, huckleberry muffins. You can pick 'em, eat 'em, can 'em, boil 'em, broil 'em.....That's about all you can do with huckleberries." So yeah, while I was on my way to the mountains to harvest huckleberries, I saw a sign for huckleberries at this Naches Fruit Stand (it's interesting how there half of a dozen fruit stands in this remote little town!). I ended up stopping here to get some huckleberries (fresh ones were $11/lb). I also picked up some other items of their bounty---I picked some funky peaches and pears. In addition to fruit, part of the stand has antiques for your perusal. My girlfriend spied an old timey type writer...I was slightly tempted. I could just picture myself writing my novel. I'd be all "1950's style" with an unlit cigarette dangling from my lips, a sideways-tipped fedora on my head, and a glass of Scotch next to the "carriage return lever". But I stuck to fruit on this trip.

I ended up with a bag of cherries, which actually was more tart than I liked, but they were perfect for my friend. When I went to pay, the cashier asked when I expected to eat the peaches, because they were sort of hard. He then asked if he could pick out a couple that would be better for eating later that day. Of course! Such service, and yes, they were just perfect later that evening. Love shopping at the local fruit stands! Thanks folks.

We get…read morea small box for our family of three (was two) and we have been so happy to get the best summer fruits in our boxes. First off, their sign-up and pick-up is easy and done online through Farmigo. Their CSA subscription is flexible in that you can put a delivery hold and get credit back. Their customer service is very responsive.... and best of all, you get to enjoy the best summer fruits like cherries, plums, peaches, and nectarines! They do a great job informing you what's in the box, and what's going on at the farm and give you notice when the boxes are delivered to your pick-up location. I appreciate the transparency in their communication. This year, for the first time, they partnered with another farm for berries. We jumped on that since my toddler can consume so many berries. However, maybe due to the weather this year, the berries were quite disappointing in sweetness and size. About three weeks in, my husband and I decided we wouldn't get the berry next summer. Well, Collins Family Orchards sent an email shortly after saying they were not of the quality they were expecting and refunded us for the remainder. I appreciate their proactiveness. It made it so I had more confidence in getting the berries again if it is offered next year.

I have never been so disappointed with a vender at a farmers market! Shame on Collins Family…read moreOrchards for having such poor selection in fruit and actually selling sub quality fruit today at the Lake Forest Park Farmers Market. I understand that vendors have to follow COVID restriction guidelines by selecting produce for the customers, but we should be able to trust that quality selections will be made on our behalf. I was buying 1 pound of Rainier cherries today which are $7/lb - not cheap but worth it. Over half of the cherries these two gals selected were spotted, bruised, had those weird little appendages and just looked bad. I couldn't believe it. It left me feeling I couldn't walk away and feel good about this transaction so I was honest and told them these cherries were not good and wanted to exchange for the other cherries which were big, juicy and healthy looking. They were rude and wanted me to take the discards with me since I had *touched* them. Maybe they can't resell them because they've been touched by a customer, but seriously, they shouldn't have been selling those anyway - they were discards to begin with. I will NEVER buy from this vender again and I suggest that you double check the quality before you walk away from the stand.
