About Our Farm Items
Our fruits are grown right here on the property. To help you see this for yourself first-hand, we open the fields up to you during the various seasons and allow you to pick your own strawberries, pumpkins, and apples. There is no limit on how much you can pick, we just charge by the pound. During strawberry season you can bring your own containers or you can purchase ours. During the appropriate season, you are also able to purchase fresh cider and maple syrup in many different sizes. If you are unable to make it to the farm, we are glad to ship any mailable items to you anywhere in the country. Contact us today to learn about what fruits are in season and how you can place an order.
