The leaves have finally started to change here in Bend, and that means it’s time to say goodbye to summer and hello to crisp sunny fall days. Fall in Bend is unlike any other. Between great weather and gorgeous views, there are endless ways to enjoy the time before winter brings the snow, rain, and clouds our way. We talked to our staff here at Cascade Village Shopping Center about their fall essentials shopping list, and we’re here to share their top picks!
Stock Up on Fall Essentials for Camping at Dick’s Sporting Goods
As you can imagine, camping gear was a popular answer when we asked our team about fall essentials. There really is no better way to enjoy Bend than sleeping under the stars. Dick’s Sporting Goods is a great place to stock up on affordable camping gear like tents, packs, and hiking supplies.

Shop Fall Decor at World Market, Ross, and More!
When our staff isn’t trekking through the woods or enjoying the many restaurants at CVSC, they’re usually hanging out at home. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t excited about fall festivities—especially when it comes to fall decor! World Market, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Ross are some of their favorite stops for cozy home decor. Pillows, blankets, placemats—you name it, and they’ve got it.
Decorate with fall leaves and cozy colors or check out some fall crafts at Board and Brush. And as the season progresses, the spooky decor comes out—a particular favorite for some of our Halloween-loving staff members! You won’t want to miss it.
Get All Your Back-to-School Snacks at Food 4 Less or Trader Joe’s
For some of our staff, fall means the start of the back-to-school season! Now, reviews are mixed about whether or not that’s a positive thing. But one thing everyone agrees on? Seasonal snacks from Trader Joe’s and Food 4 Less are an autumn must-have. Pumpkin-flavored coffee creamer, pumpkin-shaped pasta, and especially the actual pumpkins themselves—they’re all great additions to your fall grocery list. So, no matter how you like to enjoy fall in Bend, we hope you’ll stop by CVSC to take a peek inside our shops and stock up on your fall essentials!
