An Orchard of their Own

By Beth Benner, September 22, 2020

After deciding Portland was were they wanted to live, and renting for a year, Nick and Krissie were ready to put down some roots.  The must-have list wasn’t too lengthy and felt doable, even in a tight market. Krissie’s mom needed a room, and space for Nick’s photography would be great…and room to garden!  Nick recently started growing peppers and they were delicious!

In a marathon showing day, we squeezed in the ‘blue house with the apple trees’ and it ended up being the winner! Now Nick and Krissie have more than enough room to grow a garden of their own, beyond peppers and apple trees!
