✔️ Your baskets from previous seasons or another farm (must be clearly marked in litres as we charge by volume)
✔️ Strollers and wagons (big wheels recommended - the small umbrella strollers do not do well here)
Farm terrain can be uneven—good footwear and sturdy wheels go a long way!

You're welcome to bring snacks or lunch. We have a formal picnic area with picnic tables. Please take your garbage home with you.

Debbie's hot dog cart(independently run) is on-site most weekends with hot dogs, hamburgers chips, and drinks.
The farm does not supply snacks or concessions otherwise.

It depends on the season!
🌱 Spring & Summer:
The main activity is picking fresh, in-season produce — strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries (depending on availability). Bring the whole family and enjoy time outdoors together! We also have a small play area for children and plenty of photo-worthy moments in the berry fields.
🍂 Fall:
This is when the farm really transforms! We become an agritainment destination with admission-based entry to our Fall Farm Experience. That includes:
🎃 Pumpkin picking
🚜 Tractor-drawn wagon rides
🌽 A family-friendly corn maze
📸 Photo ops & seasonal displays

Strawberries: Mid-June to early July
Raspberries: July (generally for the entire month)
Blueberries: July (typically start around the second week of the month)
Pumpkins: Mid-September to late October
Exact dates depend on weather & growing conditions—check our Today's Hours and Conditions page or social media for updates!

We love seeing families on the farm — it’s the best way to grow the next generation!
Whether you're visiting during strawberry season or stopping by in fall for pumpkins, there's always something to enjoy together. We especially love seeing those berry happy faces! 🍓
In spring and fall, don’t miss the tractor-drawn wagon ride — it’s often the part kids remember most! (Rides aren’t needed during raspberry and blueberry season, since parking is right beside the fields.)
Keep in mind: Raspberries and blueberries can be a bit more detailed to pick, especially for younger children — but you know your kids best.
We also have a small playground on-site to give little legs a break and a chance to play.
No matter the season, the farm is a great place to unplug, explore, and make lasting family memories.

Yes — well-behaved dogs are welcome, with a few important guidelines:
No dogs in the strawberry, raspberry, or blueberry fields (service animals excepted). If you're coming to pick, please bring an extra person who can stay with your dog in approved areas. (roadways, open spaces where food is not grown)
Dogs must be leashed at all times.
Please clean up after your pet.
Not all guests or other dogs are comfortable around your pet, so please be respectful and help keep the farm enjoyable for everyone.
Do not leave pets in your vehicle. Our parking area has no shade, and vehicles can heat up quickly!
