The Willamette Valley is the market-farm heartland; east of the Cascades runs drier, hotter days and colder nights.

Frequently asked questions
What's in season right now in Oregon?
It changes week to week — the "at peak now" strip above reads today's date, so it never goes stale. For the classics: strawberries peak early June through mid-June; sweet corn peak early August through late August; apples peak early September through mid-October.
When does the market season start in Oregon?
It never quite stops — Oregon carries harvests through the winter months, which is exactly when some of its best produce peaks.
Where can I go u-pick in Oregon?
We chart timing, not farm listings — but the u-pick planner will tell you when any crop is worth the drive in Oregon, and any search for "u-pick near me" works better once you know the week to aim for.
