Veggies
Berry Blossom Farms loves veggies! We plant new ones every year, but usually we have a wide variety of peppers (spicy and bell), tomatoes (I know, I know, technically a fruit), sweet corn and other smaller batches like sugar snap peas and green beans.
Veggie questions answered

Head to the checkout stand and grab a couple buckets. Line the buckets with a bag. This makes it easier to take your veggies home, and help with the cleaning process. Head out into the field.

Please respect our farm, by not yanking the veggies off aggressively and being gentle with the plants.
Lastly, bring your bounty back to the checkout stand, weigh your harvest and calculate your cost, log your bounty in the log book, and pay!

Facts about our field
We use our harvest every year in our homemade salsa.
Are you open?
Being open is based on factors we can't control.
1.Weather - which affects ripening and growing.
2.How much is picked - we can never know how many people will want to pick any given day.
That being said, there will be days we close the field to allow for ripening.
You can check Facebook, Google, or our Voicemail to make sure we're open before your visit.
