HOOD RIVER — Spirited Roots Farm and self-service farmstand, located a few miles up Highway 35, has jams, tree-ripened peaches, and bouquets of colorful, seasonal, locally grown flowers. Spirited Roots is owned and operated by Whitney Osborn on her family farm, where they have fruit trees, flowerbeds and cows.
