We highly suggest purchasing your tickets in advance! That way all you have to do is check in at the Farm Market or Gold Trail Goody Shack and pick up your pail!

Due to the hot weather we experience during the summer we highly suggest coming in the morning before the heat of the day. Our fields close at 1pm so please arrive no later than 12:30pm to start your picking. 

Are the U-Pick Fields open rain or shine?

Yes! Please dress appropriately for the weather and wear suitable shoes. Even mornings can be quite hot, so ensure you have the necessary gear, including water, sunscreen, and heat-appropriate clothing like a hat, umbrella if needed, and comfortable walking shoes.

Can I bring my dog?

No dogs are allowed due to food safety concerns. 

Can I bring a small child?

Yes! With parent supervision, this is a fun family activity.

How many people can I bring?

You can bring as many people as you like! Since you’re purchasing by the bucket, feel free to bring as much or as little help as you need.
