The bluffs above the Strait of Juan de Fuca

Between the Strait and the Olympics.

Twenty-one acres of cider apples, lavender, grain and bees on the high bluffs outside Port Angeles. Come for a glass, a bundle of lavender, or the weekend.

The farm

We planted 480 cider apple trees, 3,400 lavender plants, an acre of ancient grain and an apiary on a bluff over the water.

We visited the peninsula for the first time during the 2015 lavender festival and moved here for good in 2020. Both of us are Air Force veterans; we spent twenty years learning to make a home in new places, and this is the one we chose.

Everything we pour and sell starts in these fields. The cider is pressed, fermented and bottled on site. The lavender is cut by hand in July. The honey comes from Italian bees that work the orchard.

Walk the farm

01 · The land

High bluffs, maritime air

360-degree views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains. Cool summers and long light, the same conditions that make Normandy and the West Country cider country.

02 · The orchard

Bittersweets and heirlooms

Semi-dwarf trees of Kingston Black, Stoke Red, Ashmead’s Kernel, Northern Spy and more, planted for tannin and acid rather than sweetness.

03 · The craft

Pressed here, poured here

Small tanks, slow ferments, and a tasting room in the cidery building. Some batches see bourbon barrels; some are blended with our own lavender or black currant.

Gail Harper

Landscape watercolors, plus pottery ring dishes and lavender hangers in the boutique

Gail has always been drawn to art, but she didn’t take it seriously until later in life. After a move and a career change she taught herself to draw, then started watercolor classes at a local studio. Retirement brought her back to it for good, and she has been painting ever since. Landscapes are her favorite subject, especially the way watercolor catches light and weather. One year she challenged herself to paint a hundred small four-by-four-inch pieces, and that practice still shows in her work. She is also Ginger’s sister, and her handmade ring dishes and lavender hangers have a permanent spot on the boutique shelves.

We came for the festival and never really left

In 2015 we visited the Olympic Peninsula for the first time during the lavender festival. Five years later we made it home. Since then we have planted an orchard, 3,400 lavender plants, an acre of grain, an apiary, and, in November 2024, opened Salt and Cedar Bed and Breakfast.
