Lovingly named “Honey-Bee U-Pick”, due to a couple of bee hives established on the property, Tantre Farm’s U-pick patch in Ann Arbor has become easily recognized by the artisanal timber frame barn constructed in 2020/2021 at the corner of Zeeb and Scio Church Roads. This u-pick site does not have an official address, since it’s in the middle of a field, but can be found using 5700 Scio Church Road, Ann Arbor, MI 48103. It was originally acquired by Scio Township’s Land Preservation Committee in 2019. Now an extension of Tantre Farm and owned by the Andres Family Trust, this convenient location isn’t just for u-pick. This land consisting of 161 acres is dedicated to regenerative agriculture and educating the community on concepts related to the essential nature of land use in all aspects of life.

U-pick opportunities attract the community to enjoy the age-old pastime of picking as a family, while attracting the pollinators we rely on for a majority of our food sourcing.

U-pick Strawberries: 2021 was our first year offering U-pick to the public. We will be opening this year on June 1. Please sign up on our HoneyBee Mailing List to be informed of opening date, prices, and days open.

Price: $6/pound

Pre-picked Strawberries will be available on a first come first serve basis for $5/pint.

U-Pick Raspberries: Our red and black raspberry plants stand tall in 10 rows north of our Strawberry U-pick patch. With an initial flush of sweet berries in July, we usually offer the public the opportunity to pick raspberries with that early flush in July and then throughout August and September. We have to adjust our days and hours on a weekly basis early in the season based on the weather, while the fall raspberries come in stronger at the end of August and throughout September. Please sign up on our HoneyBee Mailing List to be informed of opening date, prices, and days open.

You can pay with Cash, Check to Tantre Farm, or Venmo to @Deb-Lentz. We are not able to process credit cards at this time unless you want to pay a 3% fee through PayPal.

Already Picked Pumpkins: Please check back in October for jack-o-lantern or pie pumpkins. Please sign up on our HoneyBee Mailing List to be informed of opening date, prices, and days open.

Our Honey Bee property is a work in progress. Tantre Farm follows natural, ecological growing practices with all of the produce we offer. This does mean that you will encounter weeds on our property and in our patches as we continue to renovate this property. It also means that you will receive safe, healthy, and pesticide-free fruit. We do our best to keep the rows tended and easy to navigate, and we appreciate your understanding that these berries are not treated with chemicals or pesticides.

We do advise that you wear pants and closed toed shoes, sun protection, and mosquito repellant while u-picking for your own protection and comfort. We appreciate your patience and feedback, as we continue to improve our u-pick process.
