We have a limited amount of u-pick raspberries for 2024, but now they have started to produce a little bit.
Last year we opened a SELF SERVE produce wagon stand with a Payment Box, so you could come all week long to get produce, such as sweet corn, tomatoes, peppers, carrots, potatoes, onions, garlic, winter squash, and pumpkins, even if our raspberry patch was not open. As the fall opens up, we will have all sorts of pumpkins and squash ripening, so they will continue appearing on the produce wagon more and more at that time of year. A very small u-pick flower garden of dahlias, strawflower, globe amaranth, and sunflowers will open in the summer when they are ready. Stay tuned for updates!

WHAT TO DO?
Follow the painted signs to the Honey Bee U-pick patch, which is approximately at 5700 Scio Church Rd when using GPS. You will see a newly constructed timber frame barn when you enter the driveway in the middle of a field. Look for these signs as you approach the corner of Zeeb and Scio Church roads:

WHAT TO BRING?
-Take-Home Containers – We will have pint containers for you to pick into, and trays to take them home if you are picking lots, but you may bring your own.
-Sunscreen
-Water Bottle
-Mosquito Repellent
-Comfortable clothing – if you’ve ever picked berries before, you know that you may get hot and dirty, depending on the weather, so bring a hat, light clothing, and closed toed shoes. This patch is a bit weedy with some nettles, lambs quarters, and thistles. Since this farm is being renovated the patch is not tilled and we are using organic practices, so long pants might also be helpful for the weeds if needed.
