Nicholson's Orchard Fresh

Nicholson Orchards is a small, fourth-generation family farm in Peshastin. The farmer cares for five acres of apple trees and a half-acre flower farm called Crickside Blooms, growing fruit and flowers side by side.

The roadside fruit stand is a summertime tradition, open seasonally from early summer into fall. It offers cherries, blueberries and apricots early in the season, then peaches, nectarines and plums, followed by apples and pears. It also sells seasonal vegetables, local honey, preserves and fresh-cut flower bouquets. Visitors are welcome to wander the flower gardens and take in the mountain views.

The farm offers fruit and flower CSA shares, bulk blooms and wedding flowers, and a market trailer called Sweet Pea carries fruit and bouquets to farmers markets and events around the valley.
