Duckwall Fruit is a proud sponsor of the Hood Rive

Duckwall Fruit is a proud sponsor of the Hood River County Library District’s @hoodriverlibrary newest purchase – the Bookmobile! The bookmobile will travel all over the county and provide the same services as the physical library for residents who can’t easily access the branches – library materials, staff expertise, Wi-Fi access, technology services and outreach programs. Currently you will find the Bookmobile at the Odell Mobile Home Park each Saturday from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Sightings in Odell will continue with additional stops added this fall.

In his book titled Fruit Crate Art by Joe Davidson

In his book titled Fruit Crate Art by Joe Davidson, he states

“There is no doubt that fruit crate labels now maintain an important position not only in the world of ephemera collectors, dealers and decorators, but also in museums and universities hoping to record and document one of our most important periods in American history through these artworks.”

Duckwall Fruit is part of this history, noted on page 71 of Davidson’s book and memorialized on our conference room wall.

Enjoy the artwork today!

There are some sights that still take your breath

There are some sights that still take your breath away…

A beautiful Starkrimson pear hanging perfectly from a tree is definitely one of them.

Each new crop is a blessing.

Each pear will be picked by hand.

Each pear had endless inputs to arrive to this point.

Teamwork at its finest.

Starkrimson pear Facts:

Named for its brilliant crimson color, the Starkrimson is a beautiful red pear that originally occurred as a “sport,” or a spontaneous mutation. It was discovered in Missouri as a branch of red pears growing on a tree of Clapp's Favorite.

Duckwall started business in 1919.

The picture you are looking at was taken in 1949.

It is the human touch that makes everything better, lasting, memorable, outstanding.

It was true then and it is true now.
