Pick Your Own

The PICK YOUR OWN fields are open every day of the week from 9am-6pm.  You do not need to call ahead or need reservations. There is no admission to the PYO fields, you just pay for what you pick. NO EATING ALLOWED IN THE FIELDS. NO PETS ALLOWED IN THE PRODUCE PATCHES, BY LAW.

**PICK-YOUR-OWN FIELDS: Check in with the market for all pricing, and field instructions before picking.  There is absolutely NO EATING in the fields. All produce must be brought to a cashier after picking, to pay BY WEIGHT. We do not currently charge a fee to go to our Pick-Your-Own fields, so PLEASE help us keep our costs/fees down by not eating in the fields, nor stealing from the fields, nor dumping trash or causing destruction. Theft and destruction have become a huge issue and we appreciate those who respect the farm. **DO NOT PICK SOMETHING THAT YOU DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR.
