National Donut Day is June 5, and there's one place in Pendleton that deserves a spot on your celebration schedule: Up With Donuts.

This indie and local institution is worth the drive (and the calories). Locals love the peanut butter butterfly and buttermilk bar. We highly recommend the bacon maple bar, cinnamon twist, and just about any crumb-coated creation in the case. Every donut is top shelf.

The truth is there are no wrong choices here. Whether you're a glazed traditionalist or a connoisseur of frosting and sprinkles, celebrating with Up With Donuts is the move and leaves no crumbs. Plan your trip to Pendleton and be sure to fit in a donut during your stay! 🍩

Slow your roll and step back in time.

The Pendleton Round-Up Wagon Train hitches up June 22-27, and there's still time to sign up, but the registration deadline is coming soon.

You don't have to be a teamster to join this adventure. Participants can also experience this journey through Eastern Oregon riding in a wagon or on horseback, traveling routes much like those who passed through Pendleton before on the Oregon Trail.

Trade highways for wagon tracks, connect with the beautiful Oregon landscape, share stories around camp, enjoy a historic dress up day, and eat some grub!

Whether you're a history enthusiast, teamster, horse lover, or simply looking for a unique and out of the ordinary, but totally unforgettable travel experience, the Wagon Train offers a rare opportunity to slow down, disconnect from the pace of every day life, and become part of a living tradition.

The goats are back and it’s grazing room only 🐐

One of Pendleton’s favorite seasonal traditions has returned as the hillside goats once again get to work clearing brush and turning wildfire mitigation into a community event of its own.

Grab a coffee, take in the fresh air, and join the 2026 Goat Watch as these four-legged landscapers graze their way across the hillsides. Equally adorable and hardworking, they’ve become a local celebrity herd every spring.

Only in Pendleton can wildfire prevention come with this much personality. Check out the City of Pendleton’s page for daily goat tracking, and remember to enjoy watching them from a distance and keep your dogs leashed.

In Pendleton, craftsmanship isn’t measured by speed. Quality can be seen in the consistency of handwork, and every stitch reflects detail and intention.

At Stapleman Custom Boot Shop, Richard Stapleman is using machines and tools more than 100 years old. This equipment, including a foot powered treadle sewing machine, is still part of the process, not for nostalgia, but because true craftsmanship never goes out of style. Richard brings decades of experience to every pair of boots or custom shoes made in this shop. Each design is made to order, a collaboration between maker and the customer.

There are no rush orders here. No fast fashion assembly lines. Just quality, passion, and time-honored skill. Every stitch has a heartbeat. Every inlay is hand cut and shaped. Every boot is built to last a lifetime, not until next season.

In a world chasing quantity and speed, the Pendleton craft community believes that beauty and legend are still in the making. Plan your visit today and make sure to build in time to appreciate the makers.
