Our Story

This farm started as a dream to build something authentic. We believe good food begins with healthy soil, is gathered in its proper season, and is best shared with those who care about where it comes from. That’s the heart behind our U-Pick experience—when you harvest it yourself, it means more.
Everything we grow is guided by regenerative and permaculture-based practices.

  • Tickets are purchased directly through our website on the Visit page. We release a limited number based on what’s ready to harvest, so availability may change week to week.

  • Yes. Admission is $5.00 per vehicle (up to 5 people). This helps us maintain the farm, manage traffic, and keep the experience enjoyable.
