🌾 Why Visit Fruition Berry Farm?

We love welcoming school groups to the farm!

While many farms offer spring tours, the timing of strawberry season changes every year, making it difficult to plan educational visits. That's why we've chosen to focus on fall tours, when the harvest is dependable and we can provide a relaxed, well-organized experience for every class.

Our goal is simple: give students a memorable day of outdoor learning, fresh air, and hands-on farm fun.

🎃 What's Included?

Every student will:

🍁 Pick their own pie pumpkin to take home.

🚜 Enjoy a tractor-drawn wagon ride.

🌱 Participate in a short, engaging lesson about pumpkins or another farm topic of your choice.*

🌽 Explore our self-guided corn maze.

Our corn maze is intentionally self-guided so teachers can move at the pace that works best for their class. We've carefully planned the tour route to help your visit run smoothly and keep everyone on schedule.

📋 Booking Guidelines

Because we're a small family farm, we host only two school groups each day to ensure every class has a wonderful experience.

Group Size

• Minimum booking: 25 students

• Maximum booking: 60 students

Have a smaller class? We'd be happy to combine your group with another small school whenever possible.

Reserving Your Tour

Please reserve only the number of spaces you reasonably expect to use.

Holding significantly more spaces than you'll need may prevent another class from visiting. Since our season is short, it's often difficult to fill cancelled spaces later.

If your attendance changes by more than eight students, please let us know as soon as possible so we can update your reservation and staffing plans.

🌧 Rain Policy

School tours run rain or shine unless weather conditions are severe enough to make the visit unsafe or unenjoyable.

To accommodate poor weather, we reserve a limited number of rain dates throughout the season.

If your tour must be postponed:

• We'll do our best to move your class to one of our available rain dates.

• If your class cannot attend on the rain date, we can bring the pumpkins to your school instead.

• School pumpkin deliveries are $2.00 per pumpkin.

Rain dates are limited and available on a first-available basis.
