Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Arrive early, especially on Saturday, to enjoy the best selection of produce and avoid crowds, as the last wagon leaves for the fields at 4:30 PM.
- Check the weather forecast before you go; while the farm has picnic areas, fields may close temporarily during severe weather.
- Bring your own containers for picking if you have them, as they are accepted and will be weighed to deduct from your total purchase.
- The $9 'Promise to Pick' fee per person (ages 6-96) is deducted from your total crop purchase, so aim to pick at least that much to maximize value.
- Consider visiting on a weekday for a more private picking experience, as reservations are not required but weekdays are less crowded.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you charge admission?
No admission fee is charged. However, a $9 'Promise to Pick' fee per person (ages 6-96) is required to access the picking fields via wagon, which is then deducted from your crop purchase.
Do we need a reservation to go picking?
No reservations are required for picking. For a more private experience, it is recommended to visit during the week.
Can we bring our pets?
Pets are not permitted in the picking fields or market area for safety and food regulations, though working service animals are an exception. Designated pet exercise areas are available.
Can we bring a picnic lunch?
Yes, picnic lunches are welcome, but coolers and lunches are not allowed in the picking fields. Picnic tables are available near the main entrance.
What if it rains during my pick-your-own visit?
Fields may temporarily close for safety during extreme weather. Guests can enjoy the café or market while waiting for conditions to improve. No rain checks or refunds are offered for the 'Promise to Pick' fee due to weather.
