McMinnville
The perfect little independent bookstore with lots of local reads, especially food/drink related, and a mix of used/vintage finds within the stacks. Great for gifts and for the littles.
spots with a Local Focus in the Willamette Valley
Shops and restaurants that have an aggressive focus on local products and produce.
McMinnville Farmer’s Market
McMinnville
Open May – Oct on Thursdays, with local produce, meat, cheese, flowers and dry goods.
Thistle
McMinnville
Equally good for the bar (Patrick mixes up classic + creative cocktails) as it is for a date night-worthy dinner in the dining room. Make sure to reserve a table for the dining room; walk-ins are accepted at the bar, but it’s small and can sometimes fill up.
Harvest Fresh
McMinnville
We do all our grocery shopping here at this convenient spot on Third Street, within walking distance to The Park House. Lots of organic and local produce, fresh meats, cheeses, and dry goods in the bulk bins. For a quick, short-wait lunch, grab a sandwich or salad from the deli eat at their outside tables.
