Episode 140 – Caroline Kristof – Kristof Farms

This episode features ⁠Caroline Kristof ⁠of ⁠⁠Kristof Farms⁠.

In 1971 Caroline’s grandfather purchased 75 acres in Yamhill, Oregon. Originally the farm produced cherries which were grown for the cherry pie industry. Over time the land around them became populated by vineyards and those beautiful cherries were no longer as desirable. In 2018 a decision was made to put in apple trees. Half of what was planted were grapes vines and the other half different apple varietals. They have relied on help and advice from wonderful friends in the cider industry. They have a passion to learn and experience what it takes to make outstanding cider. Each harvest brings them closer to their dream of having guests visit and experience the Kristof family hospitality. They have an exciting future ahead.
