frequently asked questions

When are you open?
Typical season opens late April or early May, and runs thru late July or early August, totally depending on the weather. The farm is closed the rest of the year and the public is not allowed at that time. Hours and availability of Pick-Your-Own is subject to change with short notice. ALWAYS check Facebook, or the UPDATES tab on this website before coming.
What can we pick there?
Thornless blackberries, figs, veggies. sunflowers, and zinnias are available for Pick-Your-Own in season. Watermelons and cantaloupes ARE NEVER U-PICK, but will be available in the market for sale when ready.
Is everything available for pick-your-own?
No, not all produce is available for Pick-Your-Own. Peaches, plums and nectarines, watermelons and cantaloupes are NEVER available for the public to pick, but we offer them pre-picked in our market. In season, we offer the following for Pick-Your-Own: 3 miles of thornless blackberries on fences, and vegetables, figs, sunflowers and zinnias.
Is your farm organic?
Many of our practices are organic, but we are not certified organic. For pest control, we use (organic) Neem Oil, and some plant-based contact killers such as pyrethrins, which leave no residual. We also use parasitic and beneficial insects. Bee hives are located in the back corner of the property and we are careful to support them as they are the main pollinators for our blackberries.

The picking fields and the Farmer's Market are the ONLY areas that are open to the public.

Pickers must arrive at least 30 minutes before closing time, and pick, weigh and pay before closing time. Hours and availability of Pick-Your-Own are subject to change with short notice.AWAYS check Facebook and UPDATES tab on this website before you come to make sure we are open.
