Drewry Farm & Orchards

Our take

The short version

Drewry Farm & Orchards sits off Highway 164 between Dover and Moreland in the Arkansas River Valley, offering a mix of apples, blackberries, peaches, and pumpkins alongside honey, eggs, and a farm market/kitchen. One detail stands out as a genuine differentiator: an on-site keto-friendly bakery, which is an unusual thing to find at a small produce farm and worth calling out directly if low-carb baked goods matter to your visit.

Two sources, two very different schedules

Here’s where this record has to be upfront rather than smoothing over a real problem: the sources disagree substantially on operating hours. PickYourOwn.org’s Northwest Arkansas page lists Monday through Friday, 8am to 8pm — a long, generous weekday window. A separate Arkansas Land Conservation listing, by contrast, states the farm is open Saturday 7am to noon only — a five-hour window on a single day. Those two descriptions aren’t a minor discrepancy you can average out; they describe fundamentally different business models, one open most weekdays and closed weekends, the other open barely one morning a week. That gap suggests one of these sources is out of date, but this record has no way to determine which one, so neither is presented as confirmed.

Two phone numbers, same problem

The same pattern shows up with contact information: one source gives 479-857-3018, another gives 479-857-0869. This record lists the first number as primary because it’s the more commonly repeated one across the sources reviewed, but that’s a tiebreaker based on frequency, not confirmation. If you call and the number doesn’t work, the other one is worth trying before assuming the farm is unreachable.

What is more consistent: the product list

Setting the scheduling confusion aside, the crop and product list is corroborated across sources without conflict: apples, blackberries, peaches, and pumpkins are the fruit and vegetable offerings, alongside honey and eggs sold through an on-site farm market and kitchen. Apples specifically are described as u-pick, with an explicit note from PickYourOwn.org to call ahead for availability — sound advice here more than almost anywhere else in this batch, given how much else about the operation is unsettled.

The keto bakery — a genuine standout, worth verifying

A keto-friendly bakery is a specific, unusual, and easily checkable claim. It’s not the kind of detail a directory tends to invent, which lends it some credibility, but like everything else here, it’s worth confirming is still current when you call. If it’s accurate, it’s a real point of differentiation from every other listing in this Arkansas batch — none of the others mention anything comparable.

The honest recommendation

Given the scale of the disagreement on hours and phone number, this is a case where a phone call isn’t just good practice — it’s necessary. Try 479-857-3018 first, and if that doesn’t connect, try 479-857-0869. Confirm current hours directly rather than trusting either directory listing, since the two are far enough apart that showing up based on the wrong one could mean a wasted trip.

Getting there

Drewry Farm & Orchards is at 267 Vaughns Cir in Dover, Pope County, in the Arkansas River Valley. Coordinates on file are a Dover city-center estimate, not geocoded to the exact address.

Bottom line

An interesting small farm with a genuinely distinctive keto-bakery offering, undermined by a record where the two available sources can’t agree on when it’s even open. Don’t skip this one — but don’t show up without calling first, either, since the gap between “open most weekdays” and “open five hours on Saturday” is too large to guess your way around.
