Kristof Farms is an apple orchard and grape vineyard located in Willamette Valley near the town of Yamhill, Oregon. It is the childhood home of Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof.[1][2] The land was first homesteaded in the early 20th century and produced cherries until 2018, at which point the farm was converted to produce cider apples and pinot noir grapes.[3][1][4][5]
Kristof Farms is featured heavily in Kristof and WuDunn's most recent book Tightrope. The authors attribute their decision to plant high-value crops to research done for the book.[6][7][8]
In an interview with local magazine Willamette Week, Kristof said, "Yamhill, in many ways, has done spectacularly well with the arrival of the wine and tourism industry. It truly is a spectacularly thriving and resilient place. America is also thriving and strong and resilient, yet there are a lot of Americans who have been left behind. So, by all means, readers should come visit Yamhill and drink good Yamhill pinots while also understanding that there's a story beyond the vineyards."[8]
