Pick-Your-Own Fruit Updates & Prices

At our farm, you can expect a high-quality experience picking fruit. We take pride in how we maintain our orchard. Any grassy areas are kept mowed and weeds are removed.

Our strawberries are planted on raised, plastic-lined beds with plenty of straw in between the rows to keep you and your kids from getting muddy. (Although, we can't guarantee you'll be totally mud-free!)

All of our tree fruits, which includes 100% of our apple and peach trees and at least 80% of our cherry trees are smaller "dwarf" trees, with branches that are just in arms-reach for easy picking.

Once you're done picking, there's still plenty to do, see & taste at our farm market! Take a walk around the grounds to visit with and feed our farm animals, or enjoy a picnic lunch on the lawn or deck. Check out our deli for made-to-order sandwiches or treat yourself to our hand-dipped ice cream!

We are an integrated pest management farm, which means we use many natural approaches to managing insects and disease. Click the link above for a detailed article about our farming practices.
