| Resources: | History of Hood River The fruit and vegetable growers in Oregon owe a debt of gratitude to Henderson Lewelling. It was this man who brought a wagon train full of fruit and vegetable trees to Oregon in 1847 and established the first nursery in the state. Along with William Meek, they propagated these trees and began an industry which soon realized profits of incredible figures from the sale of fruit. Soon, there were orchards being planted from Corvallis to the Columbia River, and farmers growing fruits and vegetables for market along the entire west coast. Heirloom Orchards History The history of Heirloom Orchards dates back to the early 1900's. Cadwallader "Doc" Evans, a steel man and doctor from Pittsburgh, had been spending his winters in Los Angeles around the turn of the century. Doc had always turned an eye towards farming (revisiting the roots of his being raised on a dairy farm) and thought California would be a good escape from the winters of the Northeast. Farm Report |
