Morning Shade Farm is located at 8345 S. Barnards Road, 7 miles south of Canby (30 miles south of Portland) in a peaceful country setting with picnic tables and flush toilets and handwashing facilities. We provide clean plastic buckets with a heavy duty plastic bag insert to pick into (take the berries home in the bag), or you can pick into your own containers. We prefer cash, checks, or debit cards but also accept credit cards and WIC/FDNP food vouchers.
We minimize our use of chemicals, using natural, non-synthetic sprays for insects only when monitoring shows it is needed. All of our orchard fruit is grown with 100 percent natural, non-synthetic practices without the added cost of organic certification.
Morning Shade Farm Nursery has a very large selection of blueberry, other berry plants, and fruit trees in 1, 3, 7 and 15 gallon containers. Nursery sales are by appointment only by calling or texting Micah at 541-543-7566. The nursery is located just west of the main farm behind a rental house at 8301 S. Barnards Rd. Canby.
