In 2017...these kids were our hardworking picking crew and field/farmstore managers. Recognize anyone??

 Last week a little neighborhood of fairy houses appeared in our story book walking trail! ✨️✨️
Maybe you can find them , but don't expect to see the residents - fairies are very shy! ( Thank you to our builder friend, Mike Butler!)

On Sunday, our U-pick fields are open from 8-1.
The farm store is also open from 8-1 with picked berries available... first come, first served.
Did you know that our farm store was a country school in the early 1900's? It was purchased by Frank's grandfather Dave in the 1950's and has been used for many different purposes. Several years ago we remodeled it to be our farm store.
