Dear Friends and Family,

"Hello" from all the McAlexanders and Mt. View Orchards. It does not seem possible that we are on our 36th year of farming in Parkdale, Oregon. We have planted more vegetables this year. But as you may realize, we had a wet, cold spring. Thus, we are hoping for excellent summer growth in everything for better size. We are both 65 now and happy to still be farming at the base of Mt Hood.

We are still having our special events every Saturday in October. We apologize for the extra busloads of people who came for our Swiss Day last year. This was due to a miscommunication and will never happen again. So, we hope to see you for our special events listed here and may we have moderate weather!?!!

We still have our coupons - and will honor both of them in October when the goldens are ripe. Don't forget, we now have cherries available. The robins are already flying into our cherry trees, so we have our noise makers setup. We surely hope you'll come and see us.

Sincerely,

Ruthie, Lyle and Family
