On the Road Tour: Hood River Potpourri-August 14

From August 14, 2025 8:00 am until August 14, 2025 5:00 pm
Categories: Community Events
Join the WSU Extension Clark County Master Gardener program for an On the Road Tour and leave the driving to us. Sit back and enjoy our potpourri of the Hood River area. Our first stop is at Mt. Adams Fruit Orchard. Family owned for more than a century, they grow and harvest cherries, apples and pears on over 2,000 acres. We will learn about what’s involved in keeping such an immense growing operation going despite a high elevation, shorter growing season. The next stop is lunch (on your own) at the scenic Riverside Restaurant.

Then, we’ll continue deeper into Hood River and visit the fragrant and lovely Hope Ranch Lavender Farm. Specializing in many different varieties of lavender, we will see the process of distilling the oil and get an opportunity to u-pick our own bouquet and meander the fields. Our last stop is at Packer Orchards and Farm Place. They have a five-generation legacy in Hood River and take great pride in their deep-rooted heritage. We will learn about their orchards that are bursting with seasonal fruits.

Bring water, sunscreen, and a hat and wear comfortable walking shoes.
