Longtime Bend staple, Farmer Brown’s fruit stand, damaged by high winds
Triton Notary
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ)– It wasn’t just high heat and fire risk today, we also saw strong wind gusts. One gust nearly destroyed a beloved Bend fruit stand. One of our viewers, Bill Moore, took this video at Farmer Brown’s fruit stand on Knott Road. You can see strong wind gusts blowing the entire stand over and destroying many items. In the aftermath, the tent and most of the stand are broken or blown out of place. We were not able to reach Farmer Brown’s for comment. The stand carries products from more than 50 Pacific Northwest farms and has been a staple in Bend for decades.
