'tis the season! I know everyone will be running to Savie Island for the corn mazes but this one is an absolute must year round and especially for Fall/pre-October. The butterfly garden was such a surprise, I had not looked it up online before I went there, and I did not know there were so many photo options with the beautiful painted butterfly backdrops. They were offering 10 sunflower stems for free per person so that was extremely exciting to go out in the field and learn as we go how to pick the best ones in the air is just so incredibly warm and fragrant from all the sunflowers. Their market is probably the biggest one on the island and has a fantastic variety. My strategy is always go through the market first then do all the activities and then go back to the market. make sure you touch and smell everything, it's an extremely kid friendly environment with lots of covered picnic tables and room for everyone to run around.

A beautiful day on the farm

Lots of parking and not too far into the island! The butterfly maze was our absolute favorite, but we enjoyed the whole farm experience for less than $40 and that was mostly on food and drinks and a few farms crops. Picking our own tomato for fried green tomatoes we were planning was a great family experience. Played at the duck races, walked the grounds, had lunch then did the sunflower field and butterflies maze ending with their farm pops, I loved the marionberry most. Can't wait to spend another fall day here in October.

Topaz Farm has become one of our favorite reasons to make the trip out to Sauvie Island, especially for their Farm to Plate dinners and live music evenings. There's something really special about sitting down to a meal under their 500-year-old oak tree, knowing the produce was harvested just hours before you ate it. Chefs Christian and Janelle Ephrem build the menu around whatever's actually ready in the fields that week, and it shows: the food is fresh, seasonal, and clearly made with a lot of care. The long communal tables and family-style service make the whole evening feel relaxed and genuinely joyful rather than fussy. The live music series is just as great. Hearing local and touring artists play outdoors on the farm, with the fields and that huge old oak as the backdrop, is a totally different concert experience than anything you'll get in the city. It's laid-back, beautiful, and makes for a really memorable summer evening. Beyond the dinners and shows, it's clear that there's an incredible amount of love that goes into Topaz: it's a genuinely regenerative, no-spray family farm, with happy animals and welcoming people. Whether you're going for a dinner, a show, or just an afternoon wandering the grounds, Topaz Farm delivers something you won't find anywhere else near Portland. Highly recommend.

Farm entrance

My partner and I went here to get our pumpkins for carving. They are the first pumpkin farm we saw on Sauvie's, and I think they must know that because there is a $15 fee (per person, NOT per car) to enter the farm. I think that entrance also grants you access to a bunch of other activities (corn maze? Seeing the farm animals?) but we came just for the pumpkins. The pumpkin patch itself was good-- there were lots of varietals and we had fun squelching around with our big carts. Pumpkins were 50% off when we came, and two fairly large orange pumpkins, a ghost pumpkin, and a mini came out to ~$20. That wouldn't be bad for just the pumpkins, but because of the entrance fee it felt a little steep. The highlight of our trip was actually the duck they have in the animal section. He was huge! I had a good laugh at the duck, and it was a lot of fun to watch him waddle around. There a plenty of clean porta potties, lots of parking, and the staff were friendly. That said, I would not recommend this place if you are just looking to pick pumpkins. It was not a bad experience, but you can get better bang for your buck elsewhere.

We randomly decided to go to Topaz Farm one Sunday morning to pick some berries and we were happily surprised with so many things to do here! My personal favorite was picking cucumbers. I've been to a lot of u-pick farms, but this was the first time I got to pick cucumbers. At the time of the year that we went, they also had u-pick sunflowers, but it was towards the end of the season so we didn't get any. Other than u-pick stuff, they have farm animals and a little train ride which are both so fun for kids (and adults, too!) The train ride costs $5 per person and is worth the cost in my opinion. They also have a restaurant on site as well as a store where you can purchase various produce. I'll definitely be back here!

Came here for the upick sunflowers. Nice huge area of sunflowers, all the same and they were relatively the same height too. They didn't have any other colors than the regulars, but still great to walk through. Lots of bees, but I didn't mind, they just wanted the sunflowers. Cool area to walk through, and it's a bit of a walk from the check-in to make sure people aren't cutting through and paying. We paid ahead of time for 12 stems and it was so hard to decide. $5 admission, and the $1 a stem. We brought our own shears and buckets, but they do provide shears. They have an eating place with burgers and sandwiches, drinks like lemonades and root beer floats and even beers. Sunflowers festival is only a month or so, then I believe this turns into a pumpkin patch in the fall time. Located on Sauvie Island in NW Portland.

We took part in one of the Saturday night summer dinners that are $275/couple + optional wine, etc. Glad we went and here are the pros/cons we'd tell a friend who asks and wants details vs. a quick yes or no: Pros: Beautiful, rustic setting. You drive 30 minutes north of downtown Portland, park on the field and walk over to their iconic 400-yr old tree for dinner under which tables are set up for 180 guests, handed a drink as you stand in the check-in line, that opens an hour before dinner. It's next to a vast field of tall sunflowers in full bloom with a nice winding trail through them to the air conditioned bathroom trailer. Friendly, attentive service. Staff all seemed happy to be there, could answer people's questions and were moving fast to bring out all the family style courses, keep the mason glasses of water topped off, etc. Communal joy. Part of the fun with such events is the randomness of who you end up next to via the assigned seating at the long tables. So it you're going as a twosome it helps a lot if you're an extrovert or have brought one with you to sit across from you and make small talk with strangers for three hours. The crowd was a nice variety of groupings, from the group of 10 tan ladies arriving together in sun dresses, to the young pregnant couples, to retired couples. Helping a small business. Whatever weirdness the state government had recently proposed that had local farmers crying in social media videos now viewed millions of times had recently and swiftly been resolved thanks to surge of support so we could all feel good about that and it put a celebratory vibe in the air. Cons: The experience is not worth the steep price. For a few reasons: This was the once-a-summer Vegetarian menu, with the courses being Hermiston melon w/ arugula, broccolini with croutons, summer squash w/ blackberries and tzatziki, risotto with cherry tomatoes and mascarpone, and angel food cake with side of diced peaches and slivered almonds. Nice re: seasonal and we're guessing much of it grown nearby (nothing was said either way about that) but given that it was lacking flavor, served at room temp, and courses without, say, the preciousness and market rates of roasted lamb or fresh seafood, one might feel a bit cheated. At similar farm-to-table outdoor events elsewhere, there's typically two aspects from the hosts that were lacking here -- Nice 1:1 interaction with the hosts throughout the time and some scene-setting/storytelling from them. In this case, the couple checked people in at arrival on the clipboard and then an hour later welcomed everyone and intro'd the chef, but then spent most of the dinner seated at the end of one of the rows (other places the hosts usually do a bit of table to table to say hello, answer questions, note which things they harvested are on the menu tonight, etc.) Noticed they in their nice matching cowboy hats did stand and talk to some seated diners before dessert but it was focused on on group, not working their way through, which would have been a nice touch, and would have loved to talk with them, to find out how long they've had this farm, how often or rarely they do this event, where do all these dishes get washed, etc. Net: If you go, think of like when you go to a revolving restaurant -- you're splurging for the beautiful view and unique experience, not necc. a memorable meal or something you'll rush to repeat.

Was there in the middle of the week and was underwhelmed with the pumpkin selection and thought the prices high. The pumpkin patch prices were the same and the selection scant. Possibly being closer to Halloween things were bought out? Bought two apple cider doughnuts $2.50 each. They were served cold and were skimpy. Also bought a caramel apple $6.00. They should have placed them on wax or parchment paper but used regular food paper instead and thus the paper was stuck and impossible to remove without cutting off. Honestly the caramel was very thick and not that tasty as far as caramel goes.

Everything went right with this event, even the weather which is out of anyone's control. This was a warm summer evening and had outdoor wedding vibes. Everyone was happy, looking their best and we were all seated underneath a beautiful and needed tree that offered the necessary shade. The owners and chef open with background, your served family style with your table which comprises six. I did share a pic of the dessert which is the one plated course. My friend and I enjoyed meeting others were we sitting next to and all the dishes. While we both aren't the biggest fans of lamb and tried smaller portion of that course, the other course portion sizes were solid and we were full at the end of the evening. My favorite was the potato salad. While the price point felt a bit high when booking in April having never been, my friend and I felt it was a worth it in terms of fresh food, good portions and an overall fun evening. I'm definitely interested in trying another next summer.

Went today for the fall harvest festival having never been to this farm on Sauvie island before. Came on a recommendation from a friend. While you do have to pre-buy tickets, my husband and I both found that to be helping to aid a really great experience. Because of this, the place wasn't totally crowded. It was easy to get in, to park and to wander around without masses of people. The grounds are beautiful! All of the different farm animals are fun to go visit. The farm store, is incredible! Their branded merchandise is high-quality, comfortable and even PNW stylish. Even if you don't do the hayride or any of the you pick, there's plenty of pumpkins and other things in the main area. Plus big, beautiful, bushy mums for $10! Will definitely return for summer--the farm to table dinners sound incredible and the area for live music looks epic to see a show.

We took a break from our busy schedule and went to Topaz Farms last weekend to stock up on some items - veggies, meat and fruit, among other things. Thankful for great weather, great farms, great food, great family, and a great summer.

Our first time visiting was for one of their summer concert series and it was one of the best concert experiences we've ever had. The music was great, but it was the charm of the venue and the friendliness of the staff that put it in the top. Also, where else can you step away from a concert to use the restroom and wind up spending 10 minutes petting a baby goat? We've been back several times since just to take in the space, have a beer and a delicious burger from the grill. The staff is always great. The food is great. I especially appreciate that they've moved to a paid ticketing model for their fall weekend season so you don't have to fight through the crazy crowds of similar spaces. You get a calm, open experience with you and your loved ones for a very reasonable price. SO worth it!

I'm so torn! This farm is where I got hitched to my spouse when it was Kruger. Topaz has done some really lovely things, they clearly have great ideas. We did have a beautiful fall day out there at the beginning of the month. But...their pumpkin patch this year was super super disappointing, as others have pointed out, and we just picked basically the first pumpkins we saw because they were all basically the same boring thing. I was happy the place wasn't overrun, but also frustrated with paying a cover price that didn't really cover much. The sunflowers were only free to pick because of the storm, so even that wasn't really part of the price. When it was Kruger, you paid for tickets that covered pumpkins, hayride, corn maze, roasted corn, caramel apples...it was a great system. I was also bummed that "our" tree was fenced off and we couldn't go pay homage to where we had our special day 6 years ago.

Where they get you is the corn maze. Skip it!!! If we could have gotten a refund we would have. Trust me when I say BEYOND disappointed. It was muddy. SO muddy. And that could have been remedied with hay on the ground. That would have saved everyone's shoes and cars. And it was $5 per person for a literal circle. It wasn't a maze. It was a circle. That took 5-7 minutes to slowly walk. That was insane. That's where we PAID for the pumpkins. Everything here is pay via Venmo or cash box on the honor system. That's why we paid out the wazoo for the maze. Ugh. How crummy!! (So you HAVE to use Venmo or cash ONLY!) A little bonus was being able to see baby sheepies and the kids loved feeding them corn stalk leaves and watching them. Sheepies!!! Anyway, next year is YES to Pumpkins and sheepies and NO to the maze.

We spent a nice late afternoon at Dawning Day Farm. This family-run farm has such a warm, homegrown charm. Wandering through the farm stand, I found heirloom tomatoes, sweet corn, zucchini, and peppers, all grown right there. The harvest feels real and fresh, not like some giant commercial operation. The farm team clearly takes pride in their work. Come fall, the place becomes something special. There's a pumpkin patch where kids (and grown-ups) can pick out pumpkins of all shapes and sizes, and a corn maze that winds through the fields. I'm not a fan of corn mazes so I skipped out on it. I also loved how the farm keeps things simple and family-focused: a little train ride, farm animals, and open space to just sit and soak it all in. Prices feel really fair for what you're getting. Vegetables are sold by the pound or individually, and even the corn maze is modestly priced. So sad I didn't get another bunch before they were out of season. There's no hidden "admission" for the farm stand. Just visit and pay for the items of your choosing. If you're looking for a place to slow down, enjoy fresh produce, and soak up that old-school farm feel, Dawning Day Farm is it. Bring a friend or your family, grab some corn or pumpkins, and just enjoy being outdoors.
