Pear Dumplings?
Published Feb 16, 2009

Some of the best pear desserts and dumplings you will ever taste are merely an hour away from Portland.

The nation’s largest pear-growing region is the Hood River Valley, which offers the complete experience of growing, producing, and enjoying pear fruit and wine.

Autumn is an ideal time to drive through the valley because that’s the peak period for the pear harvest, with fruit stands and attractions along the way.

One September event is the annual Pear Party at Rasmussen Farms, where visitors can sample 18 varieties of the fruit.
