Durant Nature Trail

OPEN 10 AM – 4 PM, MAY – OCTOBER

For nearly 50 years, our family has grown wine grapes, acting as stewards of the land on this hill we call home. Since then our vision has grown to include Durant Vineyards Winery & Tasting Room, award-winning Durant Olive Mill extra virgin olive oil, Durant Kitchen, Durant Body & Spa, Red Ridge Farms specialty plant nursery, gift shop, overnight lodging, event spaces, expansive gardens, and the Durant Nature Trail.

 

Our history here in the Willamette Valley, now spanning 5 generations, began with English walnuts, hazelnuts, Italian prunes, and cherries. In 1973 our family was among the first in Oregon to attempt growing wine grapes in the Dundee Hills. We believe that great wine is not just created in the cellar, it is nurtured and shaped by the land. Durant Vineyards wines embody the true nature of each vintage, the unique terroir of the Dundee Hills, and our family’s meticulous farming methods.

 

In honor of our trailblazing spirit, we planted olives in 2004, establishing one of the few olive orchards in Oregon. With the first, and to date only, commercial olive mill in Oregon, we are able to handcraft signature Durant Olive Mill olive oils with their own distinctive Pacific Northwest aromas and flavors. While honoring the old world tradition of olive oil production, we believe in the potential for creating unique, world-class olive oils right here in Oregon.

 

Our family has a deep and lasting connection to the land. We have always felt our responsibility to this hillside as caretakers and farmers, but it is now our joy to share this connection with you.

THE FARM SHOP & NURSERY

Known as the heart of the farm, our specialty plant nursery and gift shop offers a unique shopping experience to add to your day of wine tasting.  The nursery is stocked with an array of culinary herbs, an extensive selection of lavender varieties and our house propagated olive trees. We also offer an assortment of unusual edibles, drought-tolerant shrubs, perennials, and seasonal color to inspire your own garden.  

 

Taste and shop some of Oregon’s top food producers and peruse our selection of cookbooks, houseplants, local art, olive oil body care, and handcrafted pottery.

 

Our Farm Shop offers complimentary tastings of our award-winning Durant Olive Mill extra virgin olive oils at our in-house tasting bar – no reservations required, seven days a week. To experience an Elevated Tour and Tasting, please schedule a reservation by phone, email or online.

ESTATE GARDENS

A peaceful respite from the everyday, Durant at Red Ridge Farms is a 165 acre oasis of agricultural crops, natural green space, and eclectic gardens.  Take a break from wine tasting to hike our nature trail or wander Penny Durant’s herb knot garden and rows of fragrant lavender.  

KNOT GARDEN

 

Located just outside the Red Ridge Farms Gift Shop, our knot garden is a nod to the formality and tradition of the gardens in the United Kingdom, and an homage to the relaxed warmth of the Mediterranean and the comfort of the Pacific Northwest. An enchanting space for a moment of calm.  

OLIVE GROVE

 

Reminiscent of iconic olive groves in Tuscany, our upper olive grove is a mix of Arbequina and Koroneiki olive trees. The orchard is located beside the Durant Olive Mill, where the olives are milled each fall during our spectacular Olio Nuovo Festival. 

LAVENDER FIELDS

 

Every June through July, our lavender fields provide an unparalleled delight. With their wide display of English and French lavender varieties, these fields are a must-see corner of the farm.  Consisting of 14+ varieties of lavender, we use the field’s blooms for our Durant Culinary Lavender, fresh lavender bouquets, and for special craft and gardening workshops in the summer months. Come experience this special moment at our annual Lavender Festival, the second week of July.

DURANT NATURE TRAIL

 

Established in 2018, the Durant Nature Trail is a moderate, one mile hike through vineyards, sheep pasture, old growth forest, lavender fields, olive groves and back to the main farm. Learn about Durant family history, our crops and our dedication to the preservation of Oregon’s natural resources. Open May-October during regular business hours.
