Agritourism

For over five generations, Smiley's Red Barn has produced fruit in the Hood River Valley. They grow many different kinds, including apples and peaches, but cherries and pears are their most dominant varieties. Smiley's offers famous jams, honey, and mustards. Try their new wine-tasting room for a fun afternoon.

We grow 6 cherry varieties, 12 apple varieties, and 11 pear varieties including Asian pears. The fruit is picked, packed into boxes, and stored in our walk-in cooler for sales (we do not offer u-pick). Call ahead to see what is available.

Visit the market Saturdays (9 a.m. - 1 p.m.) from May to the third week in November 

Enjoy live music, kid's activities and hot food vendors every week.

Vendors bring the finest and freshest local foods including veggies, fruit, meat, cheese, berries, honey, breads, jams, mushrooms, baked goods, and much more to celebrate the harvest of the season. The market also showcases work and products from local artists and crafters. The first 20 kids at the market received a free $2 token to buy their own fruits or veggies.

WIC and Senior FDNP vouchers, Veggie Rx, and SNAP are accepted. 

Find the market at the 5th and Columbia parking lot (across from Full Sail Brewing). Free parking is available in the market lot. 

This 35-mile scenic drive through the valley's orchards, forests, farmlands, and friendly communities is a must-do.

A picturesque valley, two towering snow-capped peaks, and thousands of acres of orchards provide great photo opportunities as well as fruits and wines, lavender and alpacas, and family activities.

Some recommended stops:

-Panorama Point for picture-perfect views of Mt. Hood.

-Gorge White House, a 1910 Dutch Colonial Revival, hosts wine tastings and a 9-acre garden of snapdragons, lilies, dahlias, and sunflowers with views to Washington's Mt. Adams.

-Cookie Stop Bakery for snicker doodles and molasses cookies

-Toll Bridge County Park. There were family reunions, horseshoe games, and the East Fork Hood River flowing through, milky with glacial silt—camping, too.

-Nelson's Blueberry Farm, for "the blueberry farm with the best view of Mt. Hood," according to the owner.

-Good Fortune Farms, gawk at the alpacas

-Lavender Valley Lavender Farm for gorgeous fields of lavender with views of Mt. Hood.
