As Wooldridge Creek has evolved from a “hobby” vineyard planted by Ted and Mary in the 1970’s, to the vineyard, winery, creamery and charcuterie business that it is today, the four of us remain enthusiastic and proud of the legacy we are creating. We have become a family – sharing births, deaths, arrivals and departures. Between us we have five children and two grandchildren. We are hopeful that one of them will fall in love with this place we all call home and want to carry on for us into the future. We believe that community and stewardship of the land are what it is all about.
We specialize in small batches of estate wines, artisan cheeses, and charcuterie—all locally sourced and made onsite. The vineyard consists of fifty-six acres of grapes on approximately 180 acres of land, much of which is forested. The winery was built using recycled steel trusses from an old storage building and logs harvested from the surrounding acreage. We maintain our farm using sustainable practices that go beyond organic and care for the soil, wildlife, and our local watershed. Opened in June of 2015, CrushPad Creamery at Wooldridge Creek became Oregon’s first joint creamery and winery. We are currently sourcing cow & goat milk from two local organic dairies. We make many styles of cheese from fresh and soft to aged, hard cheeses.
