He planted an orchard that included apples and pears. His daughter, Catherine, met Foster Douglas while attending the University of Washington.
Foster’s father farmed a small orchard of apples he planted in the 1920’s. When he died suddenly, Foster left college in his senior year to take over the farm. Foster and Catherine married the following year, and they expanded their farming operation over the next forty years to 150 acres adding cherries, peaches, and nectarines.
Foster’s son, John, farmed this ground, as well as two other ranches in the Yakima Valley. In the late seventies John and his brother, Bill, invested in land in the Columbia Basin.
