Apple sales begin again Friday and Saturday January 11 & 12.
We will continue January sales as long as we have good fruit and enough clients showing up to make it worth while. Stay tuned for updates as we feel out this new scenario!!
Sorry but all of our pear trees and the entire apple varieties block were removed this year so we do not have any pears nor any of the other fun and unusual apple varieties that we used to have. We do hope to grow pears and more apple varieties at our new Tukey Orchard location at Spillman Farm. We plan to have our winter sales at the Spillman Farm location in November and December.

Orchard Location
Our location will be changing to the WSU Spillman Farm which is 2 miles down Johnson Road off of Bishop Boulevard. We will plant a new orchard on that site. For the 3-5 years while the new orchard grows we will continue to farm at the current location with trees that are still on WSU owned land but we will have a different access road.
Our previous entrance at the intersection of Terre View Drive and Airport Road will be closed some time this spring or summer as airport runway construction continues and takes over this entrance area. A new entrance will be a shared road with other WSU Facilities that will not be accessible to the general public.
