This weekend we opened the raspberry u-pick patch.
The berries are plentiful and delicious!
We ask berry pickers to use the pint or quart containers that we provide for picking raspberries. These berries squish very easily, and because we sell them by volume it is important not to pack them into a large container.
Most pickers have reported that they can fill a quart container in less than 15 minutes.
The strawberry patch is still a week or so away from being ready to pick, but we will post it as soon as we open that patch. We know from the number of people that have called the farm that there is a lot of people wanting to pick some strawberries!
Cold drinks are available in the country market and there is a picnic spot in the shade if your family would like to have a rest after berry picking.
Raspberry U-Pick prices – 1 pint ~ $2.50, 1 quart ~ $5.00 (pre-picked berries are also available at retail prices in the on-farm market)
We ask that berry pickers enter the fields only during business hours. The patch is open from 9:00 to 7:30 daily. It is always best to call the farm to ask about picking conditions before driving out.
