Pablo Picasso once said, “Art washes away the dust of everyday life.” If that’s true, then wine washes away the stresses of everyday life. Which is why wine and art go together so well! Join us for a new event series…
Paint and Sip After Hours
with Shantel Barton of
Join us on the 2nd Thursday of the month for a classy yet casual creative session. The talented Shantel Barton will start the class at 5:30 pm and take everyone through the steps of painting some classic, cute, country-themed art. Shantel will set you at ease and walk you through the painting process! (Plus it helps that you can enjoy a little libation while you paint. Wink Wink.)
Wine by the glass and bottle will be available to purchase on site. If you get a little peckish we also offer a selection of items that you can purchase to build your own charcuterie boards.
TICKETS = $22 per person, includes paints, canvas, and instruction.

All good things come to those who wait…
Every year, when the time is right, the Williamson family opens their cherry and apricot orchards to the public and allows folks to come out to pick tree-ripened fruit.

U-Pick Update: May 8th
We are seeing a nice balanced crop of cherries this year.  We are past fruit-set and the cherries are the size of medium-large marbles. They are sizing up fast this year! We have marked (with a pink circle) where our cherries are in their development in the diagram to the right. This chart depicts the evolving stages of growth that sweet cherries go through. We predict entering the straw-color stage by this time next week. We anticipate cherries being “on time” this year, although that is always susceptible to the whims of mother nature. |
U-Pick will be here before you know it!
While, it’s too early to really know how big of a crop of cherries or apricots we will get this year, we will do our best to keep our followers updated on what’s happening in the orchards.
Until the fruit gets more mature its hard to predict the exact dates of when U-PICK CHERRIES & APRICOTS will start. Mother nature may still have a few more tricks up her sleeve! Historically, our U-Pick orchards typically bear fruit by late June through mid-July. As always, we will happily share more definitive information as we get closer to harvest – so stay tuned!
Williamson Orchards & Vineyards will be offering a new way to get a taste of farm-life…

Williamson’s is very excited to be making a few appearances at the Eagle Saturday Market in 2025!
Established in 2002, the Eagle Saturday Market is a handmade market historically located in the heart of downtown Eagle, Idaho in Heritage Park. Managed by the City of Eagle Parks and Recreation, one will find an array of arts and crafts, local produce, herbs and flowers, woodwork, specialty food items, and freshly prepared food. Every Saturday the park comes alive with the melodious sounds of local musicians and community members coming together to support local micro-producers. Due to the Downtown Mobility Improvements Project in 2024, the Eagle Saturday Market has relocated during construction to the Eagle City Hall Campus (660 E Civic Lane). No matter the location, you can still enjoy live music, creative vendors, and delicious food at every Eagle Saturday Market – 9am – 1pm!
Mark your calendars and come say “hi!” while you sip and savor your favorite Williamson wines!
